2nd Ed. 2015. Edited by Michelle Richmond, New York Times best-selling author. THE ODYSSEY OF IZZY traces the roots of American punk rock across the American West and over the underground as Izzy O'Hara tries to find her brother Tommy who ran off with a rockabilly band in the 80s. A lovable misfit, quirky and tender, Izzy suffers a nervous tic that's twice misdiagnosed, and it's her peculiar vision that reveals the mystery of her brother's disappearance and their troubled past. Her odyssey takes her on the road with Ray Z. Omaha and the Twelve Steppers, a band Tommy admired. Can she survive another last call and track her brother down? Ray and the boys surprise her--but in a good way, not "Hi, we're Rockabilly Vampires." The character Ray Z. Omaha is based on Charlie Burton of Nebraska, and 10 of Charlie's songs are included.
