The Recognition: The Player's Tragedy

by Tony Del Degan, Celina Berrade (Editor), Pamela Hunnisett (Editor)

Once upon a time in Spain... A cast of actors struggles to perform a play, all while vying for a coveted The Recognition. They will go so far as to conspire with and poison each other in pursuit of it, until the last one left alive receives their prize. This stage play script formatted into a novel is the second publishing from young adult writer Tony Del Degan, whose first novel, The Plight of Steel, received public acclaim and rave reviews. It is part one of the Trinity of Perdition, a collection of stage plays that deal with humanity and its aptitude for sin.

About the author

Made-up worlds are far better than our real one.

You might find yourself reading one of my stories and thinking to yourself: "wow. What kind of illegal substance was he taking?"

That's really my goal. I try to write outside the boundaries of what I probably should be writing. Many would describe me as a bit of an eccentric person.

Yes.

I typically write complex sci-fi/fantasy horror with elements of human psychology. Ever since I watched Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings, I knew what I wanted to do with my life.

I try to involve an orange cat in any and all scenarios.
