I'm finding BW to be a tad slow moving, Im just through the first 80 pages and it's not you're usual FPW ride. Is this the pace of the book, or does it continue this way? I'd like to open this for discussion; one, I'm curious; two, I'd like to hear th Form's response; three, need a spoiler or two!

Initial pace nothwithstanding, tooleman, if horror--true horror--is what you crave, you will find it in BW. Paul thinks it's his finest novel. I'm kinda inclined to agree.

I am in total agreement....by far, the best FPW I have read.......

Thanks, I'll continue reading with vgor and enthusiasm: Thank you for extrapolating - I've seldom had such direct direction.............

Aw, you just wait, tooleman...things get INTENSE....but that's Paul's trademark, isn't it?

Indubitably yes - a trademak.............I do so like the tang........

Blackwind is one of my favorites. I wanted more when I finished the story, ya know....another book or two. Keep reading, the twists and the intertwined relationships are soooo good.

It's an excellent book. My personal favorites are the old science fiction stories with Dalt. I remember reading them years ago, then couldn't find Dalt again until I joined this board.

I also found "Black Wind" to be slow going at first. The pace does pick up, and it is an enjoyable read. I know BW is the favorite of many on this board. I liked it very much, but I wouldn't call it my favorite FPW work. It surely is worth reading though, believe me, it's memorable.
