Awakened Giant, Sleeping Spirit
A Novel by Kenny G. Down
Kenny G. Down's premiere work is a heartfelt, beautiful, sometimes startlingly painful exploration of the peaks and valleys of those who suffer from addiction - and one man's journey to both recovery and salvation.
Semi-autobiographical in nature, this fictional tale resounds with truth on every page. Anyone who has suffered from the pains of addiction themselves, or suffered alongside a loved one who has will experience new meaning and find new truths with a wide cast of characters.

But more importantly Awakened Giant, Sleeping Spirit shines light and hope by reminding us of the power of positive relationships. Programs don't change lives, systems don't change lives, relationships change lives and Kenny Downs and his book exemplify that as early as Chapter three: "Walk towards the light ..."
