In a terrifying world where the rain falls as boiling water during the day and the stars fall as tears of fire at night, a man goes on a journey to build a machine to escape once and for all. As he encounters everything from rivers flowing with lava to clouds that can devour entire human beings on his journey, he begins to realize the world is not what it seems and what his purpose is in it.
Tears of Fire is a story about a man struggling against his own nature and learning what his true purpose is. It is inspired by the real-life struggles of the author dealing with a lifelong history of mental illness. It is a story of faith over fear, hope over despair, and sacrifice over selfishness.
