Illusions II: The Adventures of a Reluctant Student is the 2014 novel by writer and pilot Richard Bach. The first Illusions book was published in 1977 and was an international best-seller, telling the story of a pilot who encounters a messiah who has absconded from the "job" of being a messiah. (Illusions: The Adventures of a Reluctant Messiah was the author's follow-up to 1970's Jonathan Livingston Seagull.) The sequel is in author Bach's own voice, as his "imaginary" literary characters help him in his recovery from his real-life plane crash.[1]
Plot
After decades of flying without incident, author Richard Bach is near-fatally injured in a horrific plane crash. The injuries leave him hospital-bound for months, where he delves into the "imaginary" world of his literary creations, and uses them as inspiration to heal his body, mind, and soul.
