This is a highly entertaining true coming-of-age martial arts biography about a karate-crazed teen who discovers that his martial arts heroes are deep into drugs, deviant sex, and murder.
John Graden joined the Florida Karate Academy at the height of the Kung Fu Boom in the 1970s led by Bruce Lee followed by Chuck Norris and the Karate Kid in the 1980s.
Within a decade, he became a protege of the legendary Joe Lewis, twice voted as the greatest karate fighter of all-time.
With humor and unflinching honesty, this story reads like an action movie script detailing drug smuggling, murder, and reveals the smoke and mirrors of the martial arts.
