Eisner-award nominated creator Takehiko Inoue creates a dramatic tale of triumph over adversity. This is the story of three young men whose lives are profoundly changed by their involvement with wheelchair basketball. Critically acclaimed, award-winning manga artist Takehiko Inoue doesn't pull any punches in this stunning portrayal of people struggling with serious life issues. Masterfully combining rich character development with beautifully detailed line art, Inoue, the creator of the mega-hit masterpieces Slam Dunk and Vagabond, lifts the manga medium to a completely new level of storytelling. A motorcycle accident, bone cancer, a speeding truck crashing into a boy on a stolen bicycle--tragic life-changing events turn the worlds of three young men upside down. These three very different personalities have only one thing in common--their passion for basketball.Binding Type: PaperbackAuthor: Takehiko InouePublisher: Viz MediaPublished: 07/01/2008ISBN: 9781421519890Pages: 224Weight: 0.69lbsSize: 8.24h x 5.99w x 0.69dReview Citations: Publishers Weekly 04/14/2008 pg. 43School Library Journal 09/01/2008 pg. 214ALA Graphic Novels for Teens 03/15/2009 pg. 20
