It's a journey that, like \u003ci\u003eBelieve in Me\u003c\/i\u003e before it, sends Green venturing deep into the heart of the rock and roll jungle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOpening a few months after the end of \u003ci\u003eBelieve in Me\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eNever Break the Chain\u003c\/i\u003e lands Green in the oceanfront Malibu compound of British guitarist Blake Saunders, who's just hired him to pen an authorized biography of his floundering, formerly-huge arena rock band. Even as the highly combustible Saunders' son Mal-recently installed as the band's new lead singer-and daughter Jane offer him distorted reflections of himself, Green's efforts to retrace his mother's steps through LA's rock and roll underworld propel him toward a cathartic confrontation. The revelations to come challenge every answer he once thought he possessed to the most fundamental question of all: who is Tim Green?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEqual parts family drama, literate thriller, and peek behind the curtain of an aging rock band, \u003ci\u003eNever Break the Chain\u003c\/i\u003e is ultimately a story about families-the ones we're born into, and the ones we create.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePraise for \u003ci\u003eNever Break the Chain\u003c\/i\u003e: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Rock writer Jason Warburg ties up some loose ends with his latest Tim Green novel, \u003ci\u003eNever Break the Chain\u003c\/i\u003e. His charming protagonist is still threading the road to self-knowledge by poetically and amusingly examining the lives of others in this tale of excess and success. Best of all, a turn in the story resolves the mystery of who Tim Green really is. It's the magic of music that takes us there, along with Warburg's very entertaining style.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e-- Viola Weinberg, Poet Laureate emerita of Sacramento \u0026amp; former KZAP FM News Director\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"A beautiful book... \u003ci\u003eNever Break the Chain\u003c\/i\u003e is a novel about family life and the ties that bind people together.
