Halfway to Eden - by Michael Bucci (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

Jason, a twenty-three-year-old recent college graduate is living a comfortable yet mundane life when he is suddenly thrust into a new exciting world where he is forced to sink or swim. Through mysterious signs, Jason is led to Thailand accompanied by his best friend Tyler. Their trip takes an even more unexpected turn when Jason learns that he is destined to seek out a spiritual utopia called Arhat. Most consider this place a myth, but only a few know of its true existence, and only the chosen will ever reach it. What began as a simple graduation trip soon became a journey far bigger than Jason ever imagined.

After he is given the coordinates, he takes a leap of faith to locate Arhat in hopes of finding a cure for his sick grandmother while Tyler has ulterior motives.

Throughout Jason's journey, he is challenged to push past his insecurities and fears in search of a place far different from his superficial world back home, one he longed to escape.

Does Jason have what it takes to reach Arhat? Or will he succumb to his own self-doubt?

This is a story about personal growth, friendship, and love.
