WHERE TO FIND ME THESE DAYS...

Well, there's the newsletter

And there's Twitter

And then there's True/Slant.  T/S is a news/commentary site with a big difference.  (Here’s the founder’s take.) It’s got a lot of bright people (Ron Insana! Matt Taibbi!  Me!) sounding off on an amazing array of topics. It combines (non-social) networking with blogging. You can tailor the site to your tastes by choosing who to follow and even subscribing to RSS feeds to find out when they’ve posted something new.  I’m commenting on science and medicine.  Besides regular posts, we put up headline grabs without comment to let you follow what we’re reading.  Sign up for True/Slant (it's free) and follow me and whoever else (or whatever topic) catches your interest. I promise not to wear you out (I don’t have time to post more than a few times a week) and I’ll try to keep things interesting.  Join up, follow me, and comment…do comment.  We love interaction. http://trueslant.com/fpaulwilson/

The trade paperback of REBORN (slightly revised) is now available everywhere

Glaeken (as Veilleur) plays a big part Reborn, as does Jonah Stevens,

whose later machinations surface in BLOODLINE send ripples through all

the remaining Repairman Jack novels.

 

The fastest-selling Repairman Jack novel (before GROUND ZERO) is now in paperback:

THE TOUCH

 

The new tradepaperback (large-size) edition is out.  It includes the novel's prequel, "Dat-tay-vao." Both the novel and the short story have been out of print for a long time.  This is the first time they've been together in one volume.  The Touch is a stand-alone novel, but its characters play a crucial role later on in NIGHTWORLD.

AFTERSHOCK AND OTHERS

My third and most likely last collection of short fiction.  (You'll see different covers here and there, but the above is the real deal)

BLACK WIND

A new paperback edition of my "lost" novel has just been published.   After finishing THE TOUCH in 1985, the next story in line returned to WW2, but this time to the Pacific Theater. I'd been reading a few books that recounted how nicely the Pearl Harbor attack played into Roosevelt's desire to go to war against the Axis, hinting that Pearl had been set up. The result was a revisionist historical family saga horror war novel (try saying that fast 3 times) involving a love quadrangle that took me almost two years to write and research. A mix of cultural fanaticism and wrenchingly dark supernatural horror. I'm very proud of BLACK WIND. Looking at it in terms of character development and sweeping plot, it's probably my most accomplished work.

"The Peabody-Ozymandias Traveling Circus & Oddity Emporium"...a short book with a loooong title.

A little history: In 2007 a small press published "TPOTC&OE" in a signed, limited, illustrated first edition that sold out before publication. Copies were in demand and were auctioning off on eBay for over $100.  My readers complained about the price and lack of availability.  How about a cheaper edition?

Fine, but there's a problem. It's a novella, only 30k words in length - too short for my trade publisher to issue as a stand-alone, and too long to fit into my next story collection, Aftershock & Others.

What to do?

Well, I could publish it myself.

Why not?  I've always wanted to try that (just once) and this seemed like the perfect project.  I went with Booksurge because it's owned by Amazon and so I figured it would be around awhile.  The experience was painless and now "The Peabody-Ozymandias Traveling Circus & Oddity Emporium" can be had for a fraction of the price of the original.

Point of information for those of you who follow my Secret History of the World (which includes the Repairman Jack series and the Advresary Cycle): "The Peabody-Ozymandias Traveling Circus & Oddity Emporium" takes place about a year or so after All the Rage (in which some of its characters appear) in the summer before Nightworld.

Ask and ye shall receive: "The Peabody-Ozymandias Traveling Circus & Oddity Emporium."

 

Two bargain-priced editions of FPW's medical thrillers from the mid 1990s just released.

The Associated Press called Deep as the Marrow "Truly inspired in conception and perfect in execution."

The often snarky Kirkus Reviews said Implant "features an attractive and well-spoken villain whose warped take on things is understandable, if not justified...A terrific story."

By the Sword: A Repairman Jack Novel
By the Sword: A Repairman Jack Novel

When a Japanese businessman offers him a new assignment tracking down a legendary katana with occult properties, Jack
quickly finds himself struggling to keep the sword out of the hands of a cabal of yakuza gangsters, as well as the Kakureta Kao, a mystical order of monks who hope to channel its power to devastate New York City. Besides combining these disparate plot threads together with his usual dexterity, Wilson continues to lay the groundwork for Jack's long-awaited showdown with his
supernatural nemesis, Rasolom.

More violent and complex than its predecessors, By the Sword serves up the occult thrills fans of Wilson's series have come to expect and tantalizes with the promise of more surprises to come. - Publisher's Weekly

You'll meet again his mother and father, big sister Kate, his bully of a brother Tom, even an old lady with a dog. (Yikes!)

“F. Paul Wilson's first YA novel is a page-turner-an action-packed thriller with an awesome teen hero and an ending that will leave you hungry for more.”
Ridley Pearson

The limited edition is sold out, but you can pre-order the regular trade edition hardcover for the ridiculous price of $10.85.
