9780064473729: Blue Avenger Cracks the Code

Synopsis

What do an amorous Shih Tzu, a computer game, and the complete works of Shakespeare have in common?

Maybe nothing. Or maybe everything. It's a mystery...some would say a code. A code that only an adept code-cracker like Blue Avenger (aka David Schumacher), secret champion of the underdog, modest seeker of truth, and fearless innovator of the unknown, would even think about trying to decipher. And it couldn't come at a better time. Having accomplished several seemingly impossible missions, Blue is now a superhero without a cause, directionless and nearly girlfriendless. When he is offered a chance to visit Venice, it seems the forces of nature have aligned, and like all good and noble superheroes, Blue must choose to accept his mission.

"Unless and until someone can convince me otherwise, it's goodbye, Mr. Shakespeare--hello, Oxford!"

Blue's new challenge is tackling the greatest mystery in all literature: Who wrote Shakespeare's plays? Blue is sure that Edward deVere, the Earl of Oxford is the true and long-hidden author of the greatest plays in English. But whether he can prove Oxford really wrote Shakespeare's plays is up to the reader.
