More About the Author

May you live in interesting times, say the Chinese, and they mean it as a curse.

And these are interesting times for the publishing industry. And all of us involved in it, one way or the other. Storytelling is in a state of transformation as well, with devices such as the Ipad and technologies such as Flash promising wholescale integration of other media (images, recordings, etc., now - sensations? smells? to come?) alongside traditional text narratives.

This is a topic of much interest to me, and others, and you can find much about it over at the appropriate LinkedIn discussion page.

In the meantime, I am working on several projects integrating those forms. One in particular I'm excited about is NUTS. I mean that, literally, NUTS.

I'm also hard at work in the universe created by Brad Wardell over at Stardock Inc., which is right now taking shape in the form of a videogame (or two); Elemental: Fallen Enchantress, a turn-based strategy game set in a S&S (not Simon and Schuster, sword and sorcery!) universe, will be out in February of 2012, and I urge you to watch for it.

In the meantime, keep reading. I've just finished a book called Heaven's Keep, by an author I worked with many years ago at Pocket Books, William Kent Krueger, who is right about at the top of the mystery/suspense genre. That's the ninth or so book in a series he's been working on for a long time, featuring a character named Cork O'Connor. Do not start with Heaven's Keep. Read from the beginning - Iron Lake.

5.0 out of 5 stars it was great, November 8, 2009
This review is from: The Punisher (Kindle Edition)
I have no clue why this was given any bad reviews at all. I actually am a die hard punisher fan and had no problems with the book at all. In some ways I even prefer the book over the movie. I recommend this book to anyone who has seen the movie and recommend the movie to anyone who has read the book. I recommed this to any punisher fan who has time to read it as well.

3.0 out of 5 stars Just wait for the movie, March 6, 2004
By 
B. Delong "outlawsgun" (Harrisonburg, VA United States) - See all my reviews
First off, I've been a Punisher fan for years. I bought this book the first day it hit the shelves and read it in one night. I was pleased with the updated version of the Punisher myth. The author has done a good job modernizing and fleshing out the story. The book was well written and fast paced. However, it starts out a little slow and lacks any real character development. One thing that bothered me was the complete lack of character descriptions. Overall, the book had sort of a rushed feel, like they just wanted to get it on the shelves before the movie. I really woundn't recommend this book unless your a diehard fan.
