Fiction Feature: The Underdogs by Isaac Kan #fiction #contemporary #rabtbooktours @RABTBookTours

The Underdogs was inspired by my time building a tech startup during the golden era of San Francisco, when Uber and Lyft were just getting started and battling it out. It’s a coming-of-age, immigrant story following a set of characters who are all trying to create a better future for themselves, for society, and escape their pasts.

Readers have shared that this story reminds them of The Prestige. Two geniuses, who came from nothing, competing against each other in a market that preys upon those who also come from nothing. Others have reflected on the story as a cautionary tale that stands the test of time — How “the few, the chosen” may end up taking advantage of the very same people who they grew up with.




Review

There is something about the way Isaac Kan weaves his story that makes you believe you are there watching the action unfold. The characters are believable - their banter is natural - and the story was so compelling that you just want to keep turning the pages to see what happens next.
