review 1: A character and troupe introduced in a previous Repairman Jack book (All the Rage) is given a back story as well as a continuation in what could be an important story in the long-running Secret History of the World from F. Paul Wilson. It's novella length, and very good. Some shoddy research is apparent as he says that one character went to Florida State University and identified that school as being in Gainesville (FSU is in Tallahassee, and University of Florida is in Gainesville), but otherwise is a solid read.
review 2: A slim novella, beautifully produced by Necessary Evil Press, following the assembly of freaks put together by Ozymandias Prather as they tour the US, secretly hunting down the scattered parts of a device that once constructed, will change... more the world. Readers of Wilson's Repairman Jack series will already have met some of these characters in the novel All the Rage, and here they have their own tale. It's an entertaining yarn, diverting enough, and probably essential reading for followers of Wilson's Secret History of the World (which include the Jack books). This lovely edition sold out from the publisher before the official release date, but in order to make it more widely (and cheaply) available, Wilson has self-published a paperback edition, which can be picked up on Amazon and the like. less
