Kevin Langdon was born the same day his father, a firefighter, died saving lives in the World Trade Center. From the time Kevin was a boy, he always wanted to know more about his fathers final moments. As he approaches his 18th birthday, Kevin comes across the groundbreaking research of Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth, a group of experts that challenges the official account of what destroyed the three WTC towers. When Kevin begins to voice his doubts publicly, he finds out just how powerful are the forces that seek to cover up the truth surrounding his fathers death. He faces not only backlash within his own family but vicious persecution by a national TV personality with dark connections. Will Kevin be silenced by those determined to keep the truth hidden? Or will he expose what really killed his father and nearly 3,000 others on that terrible day? PRAISE FOR BORN ON 9/11 Andy Steele has created an epic graphic novel that brilliantly merges the human elements of this tragedy with the overlooked evidence that contradicts the story we have been told for the past 20 years. He makes us care about all of his characters as they struggle in their own ways to find healing, hope, and truth in a world still devastated by 9/11." Rosie ODonnell A raw and unfiltered story that encourages critical thinking, Andy Steeles novel brought me to tears as it reminded me of all the evidence I came across after my brothers death that proved the official story untrue. The journey of Kevin Langdon mirrors the experience of so many family members who have faced resistance not only from a world that exploits their grief but from their own loved ones and community. In the end, Kevin makes a difference because of his unyielding compassion and the purity of his mission. It is a powerful lesson for all of us. Michele Little, sister of FDNY Firefighter David Martin Weiss, Rescue 1 A gripping story, carefully researched and artfully drawn, about young people encountering the threadbare official tale of 9/11. At times funny, at times deeply moving, Andy Steeles novel inspires the post-9/11 generation to confront the traumatizing destruction of the World Trade Center and the politics of fear that have since flourished.
