F. Paul Wilson Books Overview

Healer

Healer Book 3 of the LaNague Series is the stunning conclusion of the LaNague Federation Trilogy. The Outworld Imperium began as a rebellion by colonials seeking independence. Two centuries later it is a bloated bureaucratic ‘business’ a business that produces nothing. Its income is not derived from a free exchange for goods or services, but from taxation. Its a business that never shows a profit, is always in the red, and continually borrows to make up staggering deficits Peter LaNague’s unique revolution sets out to topple the entrenched Outworld Imperium as well as fundamentally altering every Outworlder’s concept of government. To accomplish this he must ally himself with a madman, trust the word of the last of Sol System’s robber barons, make incisive use of the consummate warriors from the planet Flint without allowing them to run amok, confound at every turn the omnipresent forces of the Imperium, and, every now and then, make it rain money. Those are the easy parts. LaNague’s greatest challenge is to see his plan through to successful completion without becoming the very enemy he has vowed to destroy. Short stories ‘Lipidleggin” and ‘Ratman’ are reprinted in this edition as well as an introduction by the author. F. Paul Wilson is the bestselling author of more than thirty novels and 100 short stories. Over seven million copies of his books are in print in the US; his work has been translated into twenty four foreign languages. A practicing physician, he resides at the Jersey Shore with his wife Mary.

Wheels Within Wheels

New edition: revised and with new introduction by the author! Winner of the inaugural Prometheus Award for Libertarian fiction in 1979. Canny old Pete Paxton thinks there’s a monstrous conspiracy brewing that threatens the LaNague Charter and the freedoms it guarantees for Federation planets. The only way to head it off is to enlist the aid of Josephine ‘Jo’ Finch, the current CEO of Interstellar Business Advisors, a firm Pete co founded with Jo’s grandfather more than half a century before. Jo mistrusts Pete and suspects he may beresponsible for the bizarre death of her father that left her orphaned at age ten. But she is soon convinced that the old man’s fears are more than justified. Jo and Pete are soon matching wits with one of the shrewdest, most devious politicos in the Federation, threatened by a ruthless psi talent whose victims face a fate far worse than mere death. They must also deal with the Vanek the gentle, enigmatic inhabitants of the planet Jebinose who, against all logic, claim to have murdered Jo’s father.

An Enemy of the State

An Enemy of the State Book 1 of the LaNague Series is the heart and soul of F. Paul Wilson’s LaNague series, the story of the apocalyptic birth of the LaNague Federation. Peter LaNague’s unique revolution sets out to topple the entrenched Outworld Imperium as well as fundamentally altering every Outworlder’s concept of government. To accomplish this he must ally himself with a madman, trust the word of the last of Sol System’s robber barons, make incisive use of the consummate warriors from the planet Flint without allowing them to run amok, confound at every turn the omnipresent forces of the Imperium, and, every now and then, make it rain money. And those are the easy parts. LaNague’s greatest challenge is to see his plan through to successful completion without becoming the very enemy he has vowed to destroy. Short stories ‘Lipidleggin” and ‘Ratman’ are reprinted in this edition as well as an introduction by the author. ‘…
both a philosophical tale and an action yarn, and the two are integrated naturally and well. Read it.’ Analog ‘Terrific!’ Reason Magazine

The Tery

Heroes don’t always look the part. He was a tery, a lean, bearish creature with no name. The human soldiers left dead. Just another dumb animal on their extermination list. But he didn’t die. Animals weren’t the only beings on the list. Certain humans were marked for extinction as well. A fugitive band found him and brought him back from the brink. He became their pet, their mascot. And still he had no name. He was simply The Tery. He soon learned that these were no ordinary humans, and learned too that he was no ordinary tery. The humans had no idea that the creature they fed table scraps and patted on the head would soon turn their world upside down and change it forever. By then he had a name. The Tery A beauty and the beast fable that only F. Paul Wilson could tell, full of wonder and horror, brim*ming with strange landscapes and hideous mutations from science run amok. An unforgettable tale of the extremes of the human spirit of bravery and depravity, of innocence and evil. This edition features original illustrations by Stephen Fabian.

Dydeetown World

Welcome to the future…
Where the cream of humanity has left for the outworlds, leaving the rest behind…
Where genetically redesigned T. rexes have supplanted pit bulls…
Where population control measures have created an underclass of Urchins, unlicensed children who have no rights not even the right to exist…
Where wireheads with chips in their brains live vicariously through the downloaded experiences of others…
Where the UN has been turned into a brothel known as Dydeetown, peopled by clones of famous personalities from history and entertainment…
Where a Dydeetown clone of Jean Harlow asks a down and out private eye named Sig Dreyer to find her missing lover. Though Sig loathes the idea of working for a clone, Harlow c is paying in gold, and that’s hard to turn down. Just a missing person case…
should be simple enough. But neither realizes that Sig’s investigation will tip the first domino in a cascade of events that will turn their world upside down. Dydeetown World whips the classic tropes of noir fiction and far future cyberpunk into a relentlessly paced novel about freedom, friendship, and self esteem. Beneath its hardboiled voice, its seamy settings, and violent events, are people trying to make a human connection…
and changing the world in the process.

The Lanague Chronicles

The Federation that toppled the repressive Imperium is threatened from within by a cadre of fanatics who are afraid of independence and diversity and who plan to restore dictatorial rule to the planets of Occupied Space.

The Keep

‘Something is murdering my men.’ Thus reads the message received from a Na*zi commander stationed in a small castle high in the remote Transylvanian Alps. And when an elite SS extermination squad is dispatched to solve the problem, the men find a something that’s both powerful and terrifying. Invisible and silent, the enemy selects one victim per night, leaving the bloodless and mutilated corpses behind to terrify its future victims. Panicked, the Na*zis bring in a local expert on folklore who just happens to be Jewish to shed some light on the mysterious happenings. And unbeknownst to anyone, there is another visitor on his way a man who awoke from a nightmare and immediately set out to meet his destiny. The battle has begun: On one side, the ultimate evil created by man, and on the other…
the unthinkable, unstoppable, unknowing terror that man has inevitably awakened.

The Tomb

Much to the chagrin of his girlfriend, Gia, Repairman Jack doesn t deal with appliances. He fixes situations situations that too often land him in deadly danger. His latest fix is finding a stolen necklace which, unknown to him, is more than a simple piece of jewelry. Some might say it’s cursed, others might call it blessed. The quest leads Jack to a rusty freighter on Manhattan s West Side docks. What he finds in its hold threatens his sanity and the city around him. But worst of all, it threatens Gia s daughter Vicky, the last surviving member of a bloodline marked for extinction.

The Touch

Suddenly, a family physician can heal any illness with a simple touchAfter a dozen years of practicing medicine as a family physician, Dr. Alan Bulmer discovers one day that he can cure any illness with the mere touch of his hand. At first his scientific nature refuses to accept what is happening to him, but there is no rational explanation to be found. So Alan gives himself over to this mysterious power, reveling in the ability to cure the incurable, to give hope to the hopeless for one hour each day. Although he tries to hide his power, word inevitably leaks out, and soon Alan’s life begins to unravel. His marriage and his practice crumble. Only rich, beautiful, enigmatic Sylvia Nash stands by him. And standing with her is Ba, her Vietnamese gardener, who once witnessed a power such as Dr. Bulmer s in his homeland, where it is called Dat tay vao. And the Dat tay vao always comes with a price. Help arrives from an unexpected quarter Senator James McCready offers the use of his family s medical foundation to investigate Alan s supposed power. If it truly exists, he will back Alan with the full weight of the Foundation s international reputation. Feeling that he has reached bottom and that things can only get better, Alan accepts McCready s offer. But he has only begun to pay.

Reborn

When an ancient artifact dissolves in the hands of a man calling himself Mr. Veilleur, he knows something has gone wrong terribly, cosmically wrong. Dr. Roderick Hanley, Nobel Prize winning geneticist, dies in a plane crash. His last words: The boy! They ll find out about the boy! He ll find out about himself! When Jim Stevens, an orphan and struggling writer, learns that he is the sole heir to the Hanley estate, he is sure he has at last found his biological father. But he’s only half right. The true nature of his inheritance and the truth about his conception will crush him. In New York City a group of Charismatics has been drawn together without invitation, simply showing up at a Murray Hill brownstone with a sense of great purpose. Satan is coming, and they have been chosen to fight him. Mr. Veilleur too has been drawn to the group, but he realizes it s not Satan who is coming. Satan would be a suitable au pair compared to the ancient evil that is in the process of being Reborn. Tor is reissuing the third title in the Adversary Cycle, The Touch, in July 2009.

Reprisal

Who am I? Why, I m you. Or parts of you. The best parts. I m the touch of Richard Speck, Ed Gein, John Wayne Gacy, Ted Bundy, and Bin Laden in all of you. I am the thousand tiny angers and fleeting rages of your day at the car that cuts you off on the freeway, at the kid who sneaks ahead of you in line at the movies, at the old fart with the full basket in the eight items only express checkout at the supermarket. I m the nasty glee in the name callers and the long suffering pain, the self loathing, the smoldering resentment, the suppressed rage, and the never to be fulfilled promises of revenge in their targets. I m the daily business betrayals and the corporate men’s room character assassinations. I m the husband who beats his wife, the mother who scalds her child, I m the playground beatings of your little boys, the backseat rapes of your daughters. I m your rage toward a child molester and I m the pederast s lust for your child, for his own child. I m the guards contempt for their prisoners and the prisoners hatred for their guards, I m the shank, I m the truncheon, I m the shiv. I m the bayonet in the throat of the political dissident, the meat hook on which he is hung, the cattle prod that caresses his genitals. You ve kept me alive, you ve made me strong. I am you. The immortal evil defeated in The Keep and reincarnated in Reborn has come of age and begun to settle scores. He targets a few unlucky individuals for destruction now, but soon the whole world will suffer. And he will feed on our tears and our pain.

Nightworld

As the days grow shorter and the nights longer and scientists scramble for answers, terror spreads throughout the world and an ancient evil prepares to be reborn.

Hosts

Repairman Jack returns in a sequel to the New York Times bestseller, The Tomb!Repairman Jack has been tearing up the urban adventure scene ever since he was introduced in the New York Times bestseller The Tomb. As his fans know, Repairman Jack doesn t deal with electronic appliances; he’s a situation fixer, no matter how weird or deadly a situation may be. Repairman Jack has no last name, no Social Security number, and no qualms when it comes to getting the job done even if it means putting himself in serious danger. After fifteen years of separation, Jack is contacted by his long lost sister, Kate, to help her track down the source of her girlfriend Jeanette s sudden trance like behavior. Referred by a mysterious stranger who gives only Jack s name and phone number, Kate is shocked to find out that the repairman she seeks is none other than her little brother and not altogether happy to find out what little Jackie has been doing with himself for all these years. With Jack leading the way, Kate finds out that Jeannette s behavior can be traced back to the experimental therapy she underwent for a brain tumor: now Jeannette s brain and those of several other subjects are infected by a mutated virus. Like any good virus, it wants to multiply and if Jack can t stop the virus in its path, there will be deadly results. Meanwhile, Jack is traveling on the 9 train when suddenly a passenger goes berserk and starts shooting at random leaving Jack no choice but to throw himself into the spotlight by putting the shooter down. Worse for Jack, one of his fellow passengers is a reporter for the local tabloid, The Light, who sees Jack s heroism as his ticket to journalistic stardom. The reporter promises to make Jack a celebrity hero, a household name which could mean the end of Repairman Jack as we know him.

The Haunted Air

F. Paul Wilson’s engaging, self employed, off the books fixer, Repairman Jack, returns for another intense, action packed adventure just a little over the border into the weird, in The Haunted Air. First introduced years ago in the bestseller The Tomb, Jack has been the hero of a series of exciting novels set in and around New York City, including Legacies, Conspiracies, All the Rage, and Hosts. ‘Repairman Jack is a wonderful character, ultracompetent but still vulnerable. Wilson strolls into X Files territory and makes it his own, keeping the action brisk and the level of suspense steadily rising,’ said the San Francisco Examiner & Chronicle. Repairman Jack doesn’t believe a house can be haunted. But he’s about to change that tune…
It started off as a lark, a late night jaunt from a boring party to the home of a psychic medium, with Jack dragged along as a reluctant participant. But as soon as Jack and Gia step across the threshold, the house and the earth itself shake to the accompaniment of a tortured scream. Menelaus Manor sits atop a major geologic fault known as Cameron’s Line. But that’s not it’s only problem. The house has a horrific history. Its original owner died of cancer; his son blew his brains out in the baseme*nt; the couple that bought it next were found dead in their bed with their throats slashed; shortly thereafter a child was horribly mutilated in an upstairs bedroom. The current owners, Lyle and Charlie Kenton, clever practitioners of spiritualist hocus pocus, use high tech tricks to dupe their marks. Perhaps they’re too good: they’ve lured too many clients from other mediums and are now under attack. Unable to go to the police for fear of exposing their own scams, they hire Repairman Jack to fix their problem. Jack takes the job, figuring he’ll straighten out the situation by engaging in one of his favorite pastimes: scamming a scammer. But soon he learns that this fix it involves more than professional jealousy in the spook trade. The earthquake marked the awakening of something in Menelaus Manor, something that used to be someone, an entity full of rage and brought back for a specific purpose. But this entity has an agenda all its own…
Before he’s finished Jack will travel from the seamy world of psychic scams to the inner circle of a well connected murder cult, and finally into the dark heart of madness where he must strike a deal with a rage filed entity returned from the dead.

Gateways

Following last year’s successful The Haunted Air, F. Paul Wilson returns with another riveting episode in the saga of Repairman Jack, the secretive, ingenious, and heroic champion of those whose problems no one else can solve. As Dean Koontz says, ‘Repairman Jack is one of the most original and intriguing characters to arise out of contemporary fiction in ages. His adventures are hugely entertaining.’In Gateways, Jack learns that his father is in a coma after a car accident in Florida. They’ve been on the outs, but this is his dad, so he heads south. In the hospital he meets Anya, one of his father’s neighbors. She’s a weird old duck who seems to know an awful lot about his father, and even a lot about Jack. Jack’s arrival does not go unnoticed. A young woman named Semelee, who has strange talents and lives in an isolated area of the Everglades with a group of misshapen men, feels his presence. She senses that he’s ‘special,’ like her. Anya takes Jack back to Dad’s senior community, Gateways South, which borders on the Everglades. Florida is going through an unusual drought. There’s a ban on watering; everything is brown and wilting, but Anya’s lawn is a deep green. Who is Anya? Who is Semelee, and what is her connection to the recent strange deaths of Gateways residents killed by birds, spiders, and snakes during the past year? And what are the ‘lights’ Jack keeps hearing about ? Lights that emanate twice a year from a sinkhole deep in the Everglades…
lights from another place, another reality. If he is to protect his father from becoming the next fatality at Gateways, there are questions Jack must answer, secrets he must uncover. Secrets…
Jack has plenty of his own, and along the way he learns that even his father has secrets.

His teenage niece has been missing since this morning; the police say it’s too early to worry, but Timmy knows something bad has happened. Jack says he’ll put the word out on the street. This simple request triggers a chain of seemingly coincidental events that lead Jack into the darkest days of his life. At the end of Gateways Rasalom told him: ‘…
Killing you now might be something of a favor. It would spare you so much pain in the months to come. And why should I do you a favor? Why should I spare you that pain? I don’t want you to miss one iota of what is coming your way…
A strong man slowly battered into despair and hopelessness…
That is a delicacy. In your case, it might even approach ecstasy.’ That pain is no longer in the future. It is here. Jack is desperate…
And the last thing you want to do is make Jack desperate. That’s when things begin to blow up and people begin to die. A hang onto your hat and heart thriller of triumph and tragedy that barrels along at F. Paul Wilson’s trademarked breakneck pace.

Jack is backed into helping Munir despite his ongoing involvement in the cosmic shadow war between the Ally and the Otherness. Or perhaps because of it. He’s chafing at being forced into the defensive role of protecting the Lady, the physical embodiment of the consciousness of the planet Earth.

Frik Van Alman, the tough as nails maverick head of Oilstar realizes immediately that they represent an extraordinary opportunity…
and a terrible danger. His superstitious native crew, already uneasy working in the infamous waterway, refuse to dive in search of a fifth stone, and when Frik’s lab chief tests them, the results confirm Frik’s hunch: when these four stones are connected they hint at a power source that could revolutionize the world’s energy production. And, Frik realizes, such a revolution would put him and all other oil companies out of business. Before he can plot his next move, his lab chief Paul Trujold, fearing the greed and calculation in Frik’s eyes, sends the stones to safer hands. One of the stones lands in the hands of Paul’s daughter, Selene Trujold, the leader of an ecological action trying to halt Frik’s drilling and the damage it’s causing to the Caribbean ecology.

Artifact

Deep in a tomblike cavern along the ocean floor lies a secret that has remained hidden from humanity. Until now…
An Oilstar drilling rig off the coast of Venezuela in the Dragon’s Mouth channel has pierced an underwater cavern and brings to the surface four stones unlike anything on this earth. Frik Van Alman, the tough as nails maverick head of Oilstar realizes immediately that they represent an extraordinary opportunity…
and a terrible danger. His superstitious native crew, already uneasy working in the infamous waterway, refuse to dive in search of a fifth stone, and when Frik’s lab chief tests them, the results confirm Frik’s hunch: when these four stones are connected they hint at a power source that could revolutionize the world’s energy production. And, Frik realizes, such a revolution would put him and all other oil companies out of business. Before he can plot his next move, his lab chief Paul Trujold, fearing the greed and calculation in Frik’s eyes, sends the stones to safer hands. One of the stones lands in the hands of Paul’s daughter, Selene Trujold, the leader of an ecological action trying to halt Frik’s drilling and the damage it’s causing to the Caribbean ecology. Frik and Trujold meet in the lab after Paul has sent away the stones, and an accident badly burns them both, killing Paul before Frik can find out what he’s done with the find. Desperate to reclaim the stones and determined to find the fifth piece of the puzzle, Frik enlists the aid of the Daredevils Club, a select few risk taking thrill seekers of whom Frik is one, who meet every New Year’s Eve to compare bold new stories of the past year’s exploits. Their members are a disparate bunch, including a doctor, Arthur Marryshow, whose greatest risk is healing those who risk their lives in political hotspots; Ray Arno, a stuntman turned demolitions expert; Simon Brousseau, an expert deep sea diver; and Joshua Keene and Terris McKendry, a bickering best buddies tandem experienced in undercover operations requiring strength, expertise with weapons, and nerves of steel. At the next New Year’s Eve meeting, Frik proposes a mission: collect all five stones and return them to him. Along with the rest of the daredevils is Peta Whyte, Marryshow’s proteg , not officially a member, but more than qualified by her role in planning and effecting Arthur’s escape from prison on her native Grenada sixteen years before, when she was but sixteen. She attends in Arthur’s place, for he’s been killed, victim of a terrorist bombing just blocks from their Times Square rendezvous. The Daredevils embark on an adventure that takes them along the coast of Venezuela, from stealth jungle raids to deep sea dives, from the haunts of Latin American power brokers to the camp of eco terrorists. A fast paced, thrill a minute hunt challenges the loyalties of the daredevils, as they become pawns in a deadly game of deceit and betrayal. After all the adrenaline rushes and spilt blood, the remaining members of the Daredevils Club gather once again on the following New Year’s Eve, this time in Las Vegas, for one final confrontation, as Frik slips the five stones into place…
as the unthinkable is created.
