The longest road : to hell and back again from addiction to advocacy / by Calendino, Joe,author.; Little, Gary,author.;
Includes bibliographical references."Recovery is the longest road toward a better future. So says Joe Calendino, former full-patch Hells Angel and now award-winning youth community leader. In The Longest Road, Calendino remembers his journey to rock bottom, when he spiralled out of control, consumed by drugs and alcohol, ending up strung out and desperate in Vancouver's Downtown Eastside. Now, as executive director of Yo Bro Yo Girl Youth Initiative, it's his mission to protect at-risk youth from that same fate. In The Longest Road, Calendino keeps it raw and real -- he's the first to admit that his path to advocacy has been anything but straight. From the Hells Angels clubhouse to the darkest crack dens to the scene of a recent life-changing accident, Calendino reveals all his remarkable moments of struggle, intervention, recovery and redemption. Written with Calendino's trusted confidant and former high school counsellor Gary Little, and building on their first book together, To Hell and Back, this new memoir shares not just Calendino's story but also the stories of the hidden angels who saved his life and those of the young people he now strives to help. There are families who have lost loved ones to overdose, friends whose habits have landed them in gangs or in jail, and the call to action of a community that needs help, healing and hope -- now more than ever. With this page-turning memoir, Calendino shows he is living proof that sometimes all it takes is someone believing in you to completely change your life."--

"The sequel to the New York Times bestselling A Little Hatred from epic fantasy master Joe Abercrombie. Conspiracy. Betrayal. Rebellion. Peace is just another kind of battlefield ... Savine dan Glokta, once Adua's most powerful investor, finds her judgement, fortune and reputation in tatters. But she still has all her ambitions, and no scruple will be permitted to stand in her way. For heroes like Leo dan Brock and Stour Nightfall, only happy with swords drawn, peace is an ordeal to end as soon as possible. But grievances must be nursed, power seized and allies gathered first, while Rikke must master the power of the Long Eye ... before it kills her. Unrest worms into every layer of society. The Breakers still lurk in the shadows, plotting to free the common man from his shackles, while noblemen bicker for their own advantage. Orso struggles to find a safe path through the maze of knives that is politics, only for his enemies, and his debts, to multiply. The old ways are swept aside, and the old leaders with them, but those who would seize the reins of power will find no alliance, no friendship, and no peace lasts forever"--
