I'm currently reading "The Gargoyle." It's written by a local writer. Fabulous book!

What's the best thing that could happen to a guy who is completely obsessed with his looks? He lives out a fantasy and becomes a porno star.
What's the worse thing that could happen to him? He becomes severely disfigured in a fire.
That's how this book starts. A vain, handsome guy in an accident that results in him being severely burned.
The rest of the book is about his recovery and his reflection on his life before he was burned.
A mysterious woman comes to his bed side and spins wild tales about having lived 700 years and them being kindered spirits/lovers who are destined to meet and love over and over again. The only catch is that when he first meets her she's a patient in the psychiatric ward of the hospital.
Is what she is telling him true or only a manifestation of her psychosis? Even he begins to wonder as she tells him the tales of his past lives.
