The registration fee includes Friday’s dinner, 3 meals Saturday and Sunday breakfast, so readers and writers dine side-by-side.  Plus: keynote addresses, author interviews, an onsite bookstore, two giant book signings and readings open to the public.

HOWLERS! release date

HOWLERS! release date

My 12th overall novel will be titled HOWLERS! with a release date of Sept 13. It is the novelization of a real movie score to a film called Howlers that doesn't actually exist. (Confused yet? Trust me, it'll be hysterical.) It's my first venture into a comedy / mockumentary-style story (think of a This is Spinal Tap format but about a werewolf movie from 1986 that doesn't really exist.)

Release date will be during FrightReads Book Festival, along with the band hiphopmcdougal who wrote the Howler's score performing a set on Sept 14, to include the Howler's theme song. (Yes, all of that is real and not part of the fake mocumentary of the book)

The Last Neuro-Trancer

Pre-orders live now on the site.

A power-hungry mega-corporation. A gang of cyberpunk rebels in their sights. A teen who may be the world’s salvation, if hired killers don’t get to him first.

The far future. Adam dreams of simpler times. Running with a crew of underground cyberpunks, the nineteen-year-old plays it fast and loose as he and his team plot to overthrow the mega-corporation dangling an escape from poverty—but at a terrible cost. But when the establishment’s assassin takes Adam’s side after noticing his strangely colored eyes, Adam finds himself entangled in a mysterious prophecy. One that could span the multiverse—where the seven colors of the rainbow represent each universe.

 

Determined to fulfill his role in saving the planet, the young freedom fighter dodges hitmen and forges into the wastelands in search of his destiny. But after taking refuge in a resistance haven, Adam is horrified he may have led his people into a deathtrap when pitiless enemies unleash a robotic attack.

 

As hope fades and death looms, will he sacrifice everything to end the tyranny?

 

The Last Neuro-Trancer is a gripping cyberpunk dystopian novel. If you like resilient heroes, high-tech plots, and explosive action, then you’ll love Brian Paone’s visionary tale.
