Just Plain Old Jeremy Doug Mckim

LIFE IN A BRUTALLY HARSH, SAVAGE LAND AIN'T NEVER EASY . . . UNLESS YOU'RE JUST PLAIN OLD JEREMY! Teenager Jeremy Kentworth spends his carefree days wearing buckskin shirts and loincloths, while hunting wild critters on the mysterious, faraway island of Infernus. He often enjoys a drink, a chew, and a smoke with John Mucker, the meanest, orneriest pirate ever to sail the open seas. Among Jeremy's best buddies are Ericha, a beautiful redhead and the object of affection for many young boys, and Malachi, a caring, sensitive fellow destined to become chief of the Brown Winged Men of Infernus. Jeremy's world is swiftly turned upside down by the arrival of Weston, a distant cousin seeking to take the boy away from his beloved island. Meanwhile, a tense ceasefire between the Brown Winged Men and rival Green Winged Men tribes is unraveling. The potential of war threatens the peace, stability, and life of every living creature on Infernus. JUST PLAIN OLD JEREMY is an exciting, funny, and occasionally tragic, coming-of-age story, suitable for everyone ages eight to eighty!
