Bark Your Shins Todd Sherman

"You've heard it said that pride goes before a fall, but they're all misquoting it. Pride goes before destruction. It's the haughty spirit that causes one to bark his shins."So begins the tragedy of the hero's downfall. Written entirely in second person from the twisted lips of the deceiver, you'd think you'd know what's coming-that the game had been given away. Maybe you're being misled. Just like Marcus, the hero, as he's led into the arena with dazzling light, blindly striding toward the yawning pit in the sand.
