Centuries in the future, the population of a worn-out planet Earth trawls the cosmos for a new home, aided by the international space force known as the 4S. But all is not as peaceful as it seems, and even the most humanitarian organizations and the most innocent men and women have their secrets. The life of the unsuspecting young man Jax Nurmen is upended and forever altered when his parents are revealed to be 4S agents, then promptly murdered, and Jax himself is abducted by a trio of 4S operatives. The 4S''s admiral sets him on a quest to gain closure for the loss of his parents. But will Jax discover a new purpose for himself along the way, or will he sink into his grief and rage? As he is invited to take his parents'' place on a top-secret task force, Jax gains a glimpse into the very fabric of the universe itself and comes to the realization that some paths should remain untrodden, and some secrets should remain buried. He will avenge the death of his parents, and end the threat their killers pose to all human existence, no matter the cost.

He is one of basketball''s towering figures: "Mr. Clutch," who mesmerized his opponents and fans. The coach who began the Lakers'' resurgence in the 1970s.

Now, for the first time, the legendary Jerry West tells his story-from his tough childhood in West Virginia, to his unbelievable college success at West Virginia University, his 40-year career with the Los Angeles Lakers, and his relationships with NBA legends like Bill Russell, Wilt Chamberlain, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Magic Johnson, Shaquille O''Neal, and Kobe Bryant. Unsparing in its self-assessment and honesty, West by West is far more than a sports memoir: it is a profound confession and a magnificent inspiration.
