Enter the Japanese-speaking schizophrenia of Mike Norton through the brutal underground world of illegal martial arts, Navy SEAL training, and the modern war on terrorism in the Middle-East. Fighting for Redemption is the true life-story of an underdog, and the sacrifices that he makes to reclaim what matters most in life.
To survive the harsh reality of a painful childhood, Mike too often escaped into the realm of fantasy-emulating the behavior of fictional characters that he admired in video games, Japanese anime, and movies. When hard times hit his family, he's thrown from his bubble of aristocracy into the wake-up call of poverty, eventually being hospitalized for malnourishment. Tiny, misunderstood, insecure, and unpopular...Mike's entire life turns around when he meets a beautiful girl named Leena, and a masochistic martial artist named Bill.
