Kingdom Quarterback by Mark Dent

Kansas City, and the people who live there, have been through a lot, from racial injustice to mob violence to economic struggles. But like so many other Midwestern cities, it’s poised to make a comeback, and no other person or team embodies that possibility like Patrick Mahomes, a Black superstar quarterback who has redefined the position for a new era, and has brought both victories to the Chiefs and pride and joy back to the city. Mark Dent and Rustin Dodd, both Kansas City natives who have written for outlets like the New York Times, The Kansas City Star, and Texas Monthly, bring their deep connection to the city and polished writings skills to create a serious book about a very entertaining subject – the rebirth of a city, a team’s triumph, and how Patrick Mahomes, and the team he led, were exactly what was needed to bring Kansas City back together again.
