Man of Mystery by Madeleine Urban

Man of Mystery by Madeleine Urban
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

In the tradition of an American Dreamer the 1984 movie starring JoBeth Williams, frustrated unappreciated house husband Alan, runs away from an argument with his emotionally abusive wife and gets hit by a car. Waking up in a hospital hours later, he believes he is a character from one of his favorite book series Terrance Whitehead, and sets out on an adventure to get back control of his life. The rest of the book is a leap into the unknown without a parachute.

All I can say is why can't I have one of these types of head injuries!

I would actually give the book 5 stars but it's premise is almost a blatant rip-off of one of my favorite movies.
