After Pandemonium and Chaos endure an arduous journey from Greece to America, they soon discover they are expecting a package from the ubiquitous stork of legend. But little do they know that the ill wind that blew in the stork is an ominous harbinger of things to come. Saradopoulos officially arrives at 12:01 a.m. on Friday the thirteenth. The first twenty-five pound baby with a full set of teeth, she is quickly named Sarah for practical purposes. After Sarah bites a nurse's finger clean off with her enormous set of choppers, word spreads about the unique child; she is immediately isolated, provided with a custom-made muzzle, and ushered out of the hospital in the dark of the night so as to avoid the crush of curious onlookers. Despite several attempts by her parents to abandon her, Sarah manages to grow up, attend law school, marries, and become an attorney. In this tongue-in-cheek, satirical tale, Sarah throws herself headfirst into a life filled with adventure, a band of misfit friends, and a never-ending quest to be normal in what turns out to be a very abnormal world.

Autorenporträt
An American, I was born in the historic old city of Charleston, South Carolina. We only lived there a few years, before moving to Jacksonville, Florida. From here, we again moved further down the Florida peninsula to the Miami vicinity, and to numerous domiciles there. The frequent moves did not leave many opportunities to fully develop contemporary relationships. However, I was then able to fill this deficit by evolving a vibrant imagination, in which so many things were possible for a young, adolescent mind. Here, I was the untethered artist, whose varying thoughts painted innumerable works, on an ethereal canvas, by way of an infinite universe.I returned to the Charleston area, during my elementary school years and ended up graduating, as a cadet, from an instate, military high school. Given my circumstances, escaping into the outside world at the age of seventeen and going into the United States Air Force, was the only viable option, presented. For a young man whose limited sophistication and naivety were apparent, boot camp, was akin to being emmeshed into a modern Tower of Babel. We were from different backgrounds, different demographics, different parts of the country, and with the accommodating, regional accented English speech patterns. One year later, I would be voluntarily inserted into Vietnam, a foreign land, at war. In writing this book "The Tales of a Tiger", I have painted the pictures of these extraordinary experiences, with my words and this is my story.
