Exciting and harrowing, "The Orum Awakens" tells the story of Boddie, an 18 year old senior who is graduating from high school. He is viewed by many as a loser with no goals or future. Just when he, himself, has accepted that his life will be one of insignificance, his world is suddenly and tragically turned upside down by the loss of the only family he has ever known. After this traumatic event he finds himself befriended by a kind and mysterious old man (Mr. Smith) who informs him of the shocking truth that his life will be more significant than he could ever imagine. The result is a dilemma for Boddie: he must eventually choose between his first and only romantic love (Saundee) and saving a universe for which he feels no responsibility.
