Damn double post!

Hi All,

My first attempt at talking on the forum: Went to the ThrillerFest convention and awards banquet this weekend in Phoenix (6/29/06-7/2/06) AND IT WAS GREAT! Mr. Wilson was gracious and displayed a superb affinity for percussion instruments. I wanted to ask him so many questions but found myself tongue-tied………

The International Thriller Writers (ITW) is a great group of people, this was the first year awards were given under the ITW stamp, and it was exciting. I plan on getting involved with the ITW because it was fun and I want to see F. Paul Wilson win the life-time achievement award. Anyway this is the first time I posted because I find it hard to follow the threaded conversation. One last note Harbingers was great, dark and a bit hard on Jack, (Paul) don’t keep us waiting too long for some pay back!

I saw about half of this Wednesday night. Anybody think Sticky Fingaz is all right as Blade? I think he'll grow on me within the next couple weeks. From what I watched, and this is a ***minor spoiler***












When Krista has the sniper rifle trained on the head vampire. Why the need for a long and drawn out conversation?

I only started reading them a few months ago and am really enjoying them.

I've read:

RELIC
RELIQUARY
CABINET OF CURIOSITIES
RIPTIDE
THUNDERHEAD (about ten pages from the end right not)

I bring them up because many of them take place in New York City and are loaded with factual information about the city's streets and buildings. As a native New Yorker this brings an added dimension of fun, and also strongly reminds me of FPW's similar, lovingly detailed locations -- so I feel like the stories take place in the RK universe, even though Jack himself never makes an appearance.

The books are also similar in that they're loaded with protagonists who have far more initiative and intelligence than the people around them, and as a result get more involved with strange goings-on and as a result are able to save the world.

A main, recurring character throughout a subset of the books is Agent Pendergast of the FBI, a mysterious fellow who seems empowered by the Agency to investigate just about anything that strikes his interest. He's a great character and I look forward to reading the subsequent books that apparently tell more about him. I'd love for he and Jack to meet up in some cross-over story!

FPW, if you're reading this, I'm curious if you've ever met Preston and/or Childs and if anything fun was said!

Wow! I MUST SEE THIS IN A THEATRE! I think it will be Shyamalan's best film.

Lady in the Water:trailer

How 'bout you? You intend to see it in a theatre? Or you'll wait DVD?

The poster...


...the plot...


...the verdict?
I say, it sounds tight and tense. Probably will be pretty good.

Now where's the damn unrated version of Saw II that we all know will come out in light of III? I've been holding off on buying II just because of it.

This is a really entertaining and interesting film. It's not easy to describe accurately, but in my opinion, anyone who enjoys RJ's adventures would like this film. It features the actress Marlee Matlin who is great. Also look for the expanded version/sequel, which is called Down the Rabbit Hole, I personally haven't seen the latter, but have heard great things.

In honor of the new Superman movie. Has anyone seen the movie yet?

Hey gang, just a quick note:

We haven't gotten our copies of Nightworld yet, but we expect them any day now. Those who preordered and did not request an inscription will have their copies shipped immediately.

For those that requested an inscription, we'll be getting them when we see Paul at Necon in 2 weeks.

Also, at that time, we'll be getting copies of the Keep graphic novel autographed by Paul (at no extra charge of course). If you want one of these signed copies, you can preorder them here (you won't be charged until we have the autographed copies in our hands and ready to ship):
