Retired public school teacher and college instructor Mike Peek brings readers a deeply human story in his novel, “Atheny.” With a master's degree in mathematics and decades spent guiding students as “Mister” or “Professor,” Peek now turns his storytelling lens toward the complex yet relatable struggles of ordinary people facing extraordinary challenges.
This tale follows characters who, despite life's harsh blows, find ways to persevere and reclaim control of their destinies. Their paths lead them through mystery, social connections, spiritual reflections, and the kind of miracles that emerge from simple endurance. Drawn from real-life experiences, the book's characters and events blend truth and imagination so seamlessly that readers may recognize pieces of themselves, or someone they know, within its pages.
Peek wrote this story to reflect on the resilience found in everyday lives. After years of teaching and mentoring, he brings his understanding of people and perseverance to his writing. Though now retired, Peek remains ever curious and approachable, enjoying conversations with readers who cross his path.
One reader praises the book, saying: “Very entertaining. Great storytelling. What part is true to life… good read.”
“Atheny” invites readers to reflect on the power of choice, faith, and endurance in shaping one's destiny. An engaging and thought-provoking read, this book is now available for purchase on Amazon and other major online book retailers.
