From an award-winning screenplay writer
Having put his pot-smoking days behind him, Adam Myers has become a celebrated comic book writer after
creating a popular but controversial, joint-smoking superhero called Weed-Man.
Rescued from an attempted kidnapping by a top secret British security organisation, Appendix 9, he is
astonished to learn that he possesses the same superpowers as his comic book creation, and that his memory
was wiped by the organisation seven years earlier to protect his identity.
Appendix 9 now needs his help to defeat a mysterious and powerful new villain who appears to share his
superpowers. With this in mind, Adam trains with the organisation to be become the unlikely real-life
superhero: Weed-Man.
Rizwanul Haq was born in Birmingham and qualified as a doctor from his home university. He now works as a
General Practitioner in Birmingham. He has previously written award-winning screenplays, but Weed-Man is his
first novel. He lives in Solihull.
