OBS ON TOUR
OBS ON TOUR
From another co-sponsor of OBS On Tour, as well as, a tour facilitator, Tracy Grant has donated copies of his debut novel, "Hellified" for purchase. All proceeds go to student scholarships for OBS On Tour.
HELLIFIED - By Tracy Grant
Love, friendship and the endless pursuit of a good time are among the themes that appear in Hellified, the debut novel from Tracy Grant.
One reviewer wrote: "Tracy Grant's HELLIFIED is a fabulous coming of age piece. There's enough going on with DJ Troy, Ill Will, the Black Student Union and their freshman adventures to keep you captivated. The two semester story and fast pace make this a great read. The DC backdrop with students partying and hitting the books, along with the frat brother scenes, are wonderful. Tracy Grant gives us a look at young black men who are far from stereotypical. Put this author up there with "The Best Man" and "The Brothers," this would make a great movie. I can't wait for the next book."
Purchase Price: $10.00 plus $3.99 shipping (Media Mail).
To purchase: http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?llr=6remuqbab&t=9qwgyleab.0.0.6remuqbab.0&id=preview&ts=S0570&p=http%3A%2F%2Fobshellified.eventbrite.com%2F
