Chance or Fate- Our human hope rests upon one star. One sunny and rather warm spring morning, in a more than well-respected neighborhood of Louisville, high school senior and star-athlete, Lance Buchannan, awakens to discover strange bruises and scars across his body; but theyre not from wrestling or football practice. Nor did they come from a wild night on the town. Where did they come from? And whats gonna happen to me? he can only wonder. And to his dismay, these questions reveal that this is only the tip of a much larger matter, which not only his family and community struggle with, but the nation and world as well. Lances unexpected journey forces him to reconsider himselfwho he is, and what hes all about. It also reshapes his value systemwhats most important to himas well as the way he see things, and carries out accomplishments. And lastly, it reveals to him who and what IS the precedence. Without a doubt, The Precedence will draw you in, stretch your mind, and perhaps forever change the way you think of life and see existence. It may also challenge your entire paradigm, and make you rethink God, the universe, and mankinds civilization as we know it today; as well as strip away the most traditional of mores. But, on the other hand, it may actually clarify and strengthen personal beliefs, which many of us often question rather blindly. The Precedence is a story like no other. It will take you to places never dreamed of. It will also bring you feelings never felt before. Just remember, keep an open mindand ask yourself, Could this actually happen? Then, place yourself into the characters shoes, and see if ANY of this fits. Perhaps YOU will determine what the precedence actually is in YOUR life.
