Interesting article about whether Rakshasas (basis of Rakoshi?) were really Denisovans. https://www.ancient-origins.net/news-his...na-0012974

I was not expecting another RJ book so imagine my delight, no, my ecstasy, in finding The Last Christmas at the airport bookstore. Thank you Mr. Wilson for letting us have another peek into Jack's life. As usual, the story was enthralling and Jack was at the top of his game.

Now having said that, I still want to know what happens after the events of Nightworld. Will we ever find out? How has the world changed, how has Jack's world changed? Where are Gia and Vicky and Abe? Answers, I need answers!

The Age of the Triffids is the official sequel to the classic British sci-fi plantpocalypse, The Day of the Triffids by John Wyndham. Unfortunately, the novel is only for sale in Canada and New Zealand for weird international copyright law reasons.

I just received and read the F Files today, particularly the section about certain copies of the limited edition of The Last Christmas having only 347 pages and no Afterword, as opposed to the 369 pages that the book was supposed to have, including the Afterword. I checked my copy of the limited edition that I bought from Gauntlet, and sure enough, it has 347 pages and no Afterword. I would sort of like to read the Afterword; maybe Gauntlet could provide it in electronic form to persons whose copies of the book omit it? I thought about simply buying the Kindle version, but according to Amazon's website, the Kindle version has 347 pages, whereas the (non-limited-edition) hardback and the paperback each have 370 pages, which at least suggests that the Kindle version lacks the Afterword (although it could possibly mean that the Kindle pagination is just different from the print versions, and the 347 pages is a coincidence).
I note that in the F Files FPW says that the copies missing the Afterward may be "a rare variant". I wonder if this means it will be as valuable as some currency with missing features?

I got the Secret Stories collection for Christmas. All of the stories except for "Cleaning Machine" are listed in the Secret History chronology, and are presented in the collection in that order. So the placement of "Cleaning Machine" between "Faces" and "The Barrens" narrows it down. At this point, shouldn't it be given an official slot in the chronology?

How many years do the 15 or 16 repairman jack novels, his adult years, encompass? Just curious because as I'm reading them (again), it seems like it's only about 4 or 5 years total, but I cannot get a straight answer from any of the online sources!!

Thanks.

As I was reading The Last Christmas, I highly enjoyed the first conversation between Glaeken and Madame de Medici. Glaeken’s warning to her not to use his real name but one of his aliases due to Rasalom hearing his name was spoken, and two pages later on 228 she calls him Glaeken. Was that a mistake or meant to be that way doc? Just curious.

God help me ...I think I’m in love with Madame de Medici.

I just received my numbered copy (#16) of The Last Christmas this afternoon from Gauntlet!

I have been a long-time fan of Dr. Wilson and have read all of the books he has written by himself. Have not read many of the books he has co-written with other authors. (The only one I am sure I read was "Draculas".)
Which are considered the best of the co-written books? Thanks
