The Monkeyface Chronicles by Richard Scarsbrook

Here lies the story of Phillip Skylar, born with a facial deformity that earns him the nickname Monkeyface and a tough childhood. Always the brunt of jokes and the victim of brutes, he doesn’t have it as easy as his genetically perfect twin brother, Michael, and he knows it. Yet just as he makes a life for himself, disaster strikes and changes the course of Phillip's life forever.

This is a twisting tale of friendship, brotherhood, loyalty, love and betrayal that will leave you fumbling for the next page! With each chapter you will embrace the character of Phillip Skylar as the stupidly brave person he is and fall in love with his every fault. The book is well written and riddled with twist upon twist. Scarsbrook brings you a story of self-discovery like you've never seen before.

If you enjoyed The Monkeyface Chronicles and are looking for more like it, I'd recommend Cheeseburger Subversive by Richard Scarsbrook.
