โฆ Synopsis
Aftershock & Others is the third collection of short fiction by New York Times bestselling author F. Paul Wilson, hailed by the Rocky Mountain News as among the finest storytellers of our times.
The title novelette won the Bram Stoker Award and its companions touch on the past, present, and futurefrom the inflationary insanity of Weimar Germany (Aryans and Absinthe) to disco clubera Manhattan (When He Was Fab), to the rationing of medical services in a grim near future (Offshore). Wilsons stylistic diversity and versatility are on display in stories that pay tribute to Ray Bradbury (The November Game), use a sentient killer virus as a point-of-view character (Lysing toward Bethlehem), and pay unabashed homage to pure pulp fiction in two yellow peril stories (Sex Slaves of the Dragon Tong and Part of the Game). And finally, Wilson treats us to his popular antihero Repairman Jack at his most inventive: trapped in a drugstore with four killers (Interlude at Duanes).
