Last third

Do you know who you are?<br /><br />And who you are meant to become?<br /><br />One third of kids will go on to the best schools, get the best jobs; essentially, become the pillars of society. The second third will become government employees, teachers, nurses, construction workers, businessmen or--women and live a comfortable and prosperous life.<br /><br />Trouble will be the only accomplishment of the last third, and they will be subject to the rules of the first two thirds.<br /><br />Jeremy, a biracial bastard child of a single teenage mother, was quickly labeled as being among the last third in his adolescence. With no friends, money, and a rapidly disintegrating relationship with his mother, Jeremy had little prospects to find a way out of his misery. As his anger climaxes--to the shock of the notorious and terrifying school bully--Jeremy seemingly seals his fate as a member of the last third.<br /><br />Enter Roy, an eccentric old curmudgeon, who has a fated encounter with Jeremy. As Roy introduces Jeremy to the fantastical world of aviation, an unexpected friendship grows. Can these two misfits find some beacon of hope in each other?<br /><br />In his story of adversity, growing up, and friendship, author Jonathan Mach presents a tale of life in the face of formidable obstacles and the meaningful relationships that blossom as a result.
