1980s and 1990s. I ve reviewed a few of them here on PW, and created a hrefhttps://youtu.be/Vcraj9Yv2ro?si1rSimsjzZiILWhYW target_blank>videos/a> discussing these novels. I discovered a series recently that was new to me, b>i>Babysitters Nightmares/i>/b>. This was a short-lived, four-book series of stand-alone thrillers published by HarperPaperbacks, the a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/search/label/Young%20Adult?m0 target_blank>young adult/a> division of HarperCollins, in 1995. My experience comes by way of b>i>A Killer in the House/i>/b>, the series last installment, authored by J.H. Carroll. /span>p>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Sue is a high school student earning extra income by babysitting the Andersons young son. One night, she stumbles on an envelope left under the typewriter of Mr. Anderson. Inside, she discovers a check being paid to a person identified as R. Stoud for $125K. This fat check leads Sue into a search for who Mr. Anderson really is and what led to his wealth. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Partnering with her friend Lydia and friend Brett, Sue begins an investigation that leads to some really dark places. Apparently, Mrs. Anderson may have killed her prior husband, stolen his money, and set up a new identity. Is she a black widow preying on rich men? Is Mr. Anderson the next victim?/span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>b>i>A Killer in the House/i>/b> isnt the novel I thought it would be. I was prepared for a home-invasion setup with some sadistic psychopath breaking in on a babysitters shift. Maybe something like the film b>i>Black Christmas/i>/b>, playing up the killer in the house title. Remember “the calls are coming from inside the house”? Instead, this short novel is a crime-fiction endeavor with the lead researching the suspects former employer, a trip to the library for archived press clippings, a discussion at a New York Mets game, and other low-tension affairs. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>While the finale produced some gunfire, fisticuffs, and a few surprises, the book is generally going to attract fans of b>i>Nancy Drew/i>/b> or b>i>The Hardy Boys/i>/b>.

He elected to play professional baseball in the 1950s, but left the sport after just 25 games and two seasons. His first published novel was b>i>Snowkill/i>/b>, published in 1970. He authored 14 more books before his passing, most of which are high adventure novels that incorporate skiing, mountain climbing, and philosophy. His intense thriller b>i>The Wolf in the Clouds/i>/b> is an avalanche-themed survival novel that also features a deranged psychopath. The book was originally published as a hardcover by Bobbs-Merrill Company in 1977 and in paperback by Popular Library the same year. /span>p>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Jack is a family man with a wife and two young children. He works for the U.S. Forestry Service and specializes in avalanche prevention and recovery. As the book begins, Jacks co-worker Frank arrives at Jacks house and explains that their assignment is to retrieve three college kids who have vacationed in a secluded, faraway cabin near the top of fictitious Mt. Wolf. As the two leave the house, Jacks wife begs him to consider moving his job to a different area of expertise or a safer geographical area. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>En route to the base of the mountain, Jack discovers Frank has brought a rifle for the rescue mission. In a philosophical debate that permeates throughout the novel, Jack argues that the gun is not the answer. He questions Franks intentions and explains that the homicidal maniac was once a friend and co-worker. Its explained that the maniac is Ralph, a quiet man who befriended Jack a year or two earlier on the job. Ralph even rescued Jack during an avalanche, so the two share a bond. Yet, Jack understands Ralphs psychotic tendencies. The killer murdered his landlord and shot several skiers before running from fugitives into the icy wilderness. Hes a mass shooter on the run, which is ultimately Franks defense in bringing a rifle for the rescue. Smart guy./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Eventually, Jack and Frank reach the mountaintop and meet with the three college kids. Ralph arrives as well, and all Hell breaks loose. People are shot and killed, Ralph takes the cabin and captures Jack and two college kids. The novels second half is a high-tension cat-and-mouse affair as Jack talks with Ralph to de-escalate the situation. Yet without a gun, Jack realizes his efforts are useless and likely to cost him his life. No one is getting out of the cabin without a struggle./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>b>i>The Wolf in the Clouds/i>/b> is an excellent thriller that incorporates philosophy and high adventure. Jack is aloof and weak, the opposite of a paperback warrior. The idea of combatting violence without violence sounds great in theory, but spells disaster for these college kids and Jack. Despite Jacks efforts to talk to Ralph, the maniac ultimately descends into some really dark places fueled by sexual frustration, psychotic fantasies, and a deep desire to kill people to liberate their Earthly bodies for a space trip. Ralph is the cult leader without a cult, Jack is the white-hatted hero without a gun. Faust blends all of these into a fascinating novel that piqued my interest in his bibliography. Recommended.

Craig Zahler/a> is a terrific independent screenwriter and an accomplished novelist. His 2014 violent crime novel, b>i>Mean Business on North Ganson/i>/b> b>i>Street/i>/b>, was to be adapted into a movie starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Jamie Foxx, but it seems the film project never happened./span>p>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Our hero is Jules Bettinger, age 50. He’s a tough and cynical black police detective in Arizona. For largely political reasons involving an unfortunate civilian death, he’s fired from his position on the force. His chief made some calls and landed him a job as a police detective in a rustbelt city called Victory, Missouri. The town is a cesspool of rapes, abductions and murders. They could use a seasoned detective./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Victory is a shithole among shitholes resembling b>i>Sin City/i>/b> from the Frank Miller comic books. Dangerous thugs wielding pipes are everywhere. The “Welcome to Victory” sign at the city limits is smeared with excrement greeting visitors with miles of dilapidated tenements and dead pigeons adorning every street./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Bettinger’s first case in Victory is a murder-rape (in that order) on Ganston Street, and the book starts looking like a normal police procedural. Not so fast! Zahler’s plotting takes two abrupt turns becoming an investigation into police corruption, then a violent serial killer manhunt./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Ganston Street’s characters are vivid and morally-ambiguous. Characters that stand on virtue are dragged into the muck when a case becomes personal. As a lead character, Bettinger is super-smart and capable. But the real star of the novel is the dungheap town of Victory. Zahler pours it on thick making Victory far-and-away the most putrid city in America — making Gary, Indiana look like Downtown Disney./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>To enjoy a Zahler book, you need to be comfortable with an extreme amount of graphic violence.

However, his reputation is mostly synonymous with the ghost story b>i>The Turn of the Screw/i>/b>. The work was originally published in b>i>Colliers Weekly/i>/b> in 1898, then reprinted in numerous formats as part of b>i>The Two Magics /i>/b>collection, b>i>The Aspern Papers/i>/b>, and stand-alone editions by a variety of publishers. Maintaining the novellas relevancy are the endless adaptations. There have been at least seven film adaptations, ten television series productions, numerous stage performances, and a radio play. I read and enjoyed the book when I was much younger. As part of my collaboration with Nick Anderson at The Book Graveyard, I agreed to revisit the novella for a discussion on a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/search/label/Gothics?m0 target_blank>gothic/a> paperbacks. /span>p>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>The basis of the novella is told in first-person perspective from an unnamed narrator. She is the newly hired governess for a boy and a girl living in a large country house in Essex, England. While ages are never provided, I guess that Miles is around 14-16 years of age. He was attending boarding school and has been dismissed for the summer. Later, it is disclosed through a letter that Miles has been permanently kicked out of the school for some undisclosed act. Flora is Miles younger sister. Based on clues in the novel, I speculate she is around 4-5 years of age. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Through the narrative, the governess learns that two of her predecessors mysteriously died. While outside on the front lawn, the governess looks up to see a strange man inside the house walking along the tower. Later, the governess sees a malevolent woman dressed in black standing near the children. These appearances continue throughout the narrative, leading readers to question the narrators mental state. In the narrators defense, the children behave as if they see these two people as well. Later, the governess describes the people to Mrs. Grose, the housekeeper, and she confirms that these two entities could be the prior “dead” predecessors that tutored the children. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>b>i>The Turn of the Screw/i>/b> is a difficult novella to read. The prose and language are Victorian, creating abrasion for readers (i.e. “presumable sequestration”). The most straightforward scenes are described in abstract details that blur the actual events. There is too much anonymity to allow readers to connect to these characters, a strangeness that constructs and seals too many details. I conclude that James purposefully wrote the work in a vague way to create an air of mystery in the whole text. Either this presentation will work for you or it wont. The first time I read the novella, I was intrigued and overly enthusiastic about it. This time, I found the writing tedious and the pace sluggish./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>While there are terrifying moments, the way they are described isnt captivating or revealing. Perhaps at the time of publication, this had more of an impact, but in 2025, the horror is tepid at best. I think Im more moved by the general idea of the novella and the inspiration it provided for gothic paperbacks and films (b>i>The Others/i>/b>, b>i>The Woman in Black/i>/b> come to mind). Theres no questioning the works positive impact on modern thrillers and horror, and for that reason, Im appreciative of James contribution to the genre. You owe it to yourself to read the novella and come to your own conclusions./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Get a version you like b>a hrefhttp://affiliates.abebooks.com/c/58313/77798/2029?uhttps%3A%2F%2Fwww.abebooks.com%2Fservlet%2FSearchResults%3Fan%3DHenry%2520James%26bi%3D0%26bx%3Doff%26ds%3D30%26n%3D-1%26prc%3DUSD%26servlet%3DImpactRadiusAffiliateLinkEntry%26sortby%3D20%26tn%3DThe%2520Turn%2520of%2520the%2520Screw target_blank>HERE/a>/b>./span>/p>div styleclear: both;>/div>/div>div classpost-footer>div classpost-footer-line post-footer-line-1>span classpost-author vcard>Posted byspan classfn itempropauthor itemscopeitemscope itemtypehttp://schema.org/Person>meta contenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11237105535257849119 itempropurl/>a classg-profile hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11237105535257849119 relauthor titleauthor profile>span itempropname>Paperback Warrior/span>/a>/span>/span>span classpost-timestamp>atmeta contenthttp://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2026/01/the-turn-of-screw.html itempropurl/>a classtimestamp-link hrefhttp://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2026/01/the-turn-of-screw.html relbookmark titlepermanent link>abbr classpublished itempropdatePublished title2026-01-16T06:00:00-05:00>6:00 AM/abbr>/a>/span>span classpost-comment-link>a classcomment-link hrefhttp://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2026/01/the-turn-of-screw.html#comment-form onclick>No comments: /a>/span>span classpost-icons>span classitem-control blog-admin pid-432249977>a hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID6059288516341766624&frompencil titleEdit Post>img alt classicon-action height18 srchttps://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif width18/>/a>/span>/span>div classpost-share-buttons goog-inline-block>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-email hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID6059288516341766624&targetemail target_blank titleEmail This>span classshare-button-link-text>Email This/span>/a>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-blog hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID6059288516341766624&targetblog onclickwindow.open(this.href, _blank, height270,width475);

He was a sales rep and publicist before becoming a senior editor at HarperCollins. He later became a literary agent for Curtis Brown Pty Ltd before becoming a full-time author. He created and wrote the fantasy series b>i>Old Kingdom/i>/b>, consisting of six novels, as well as young-adult fantasy titles like b>i>The Seventh Tower/i>/b>, b>i>The Keys to the Kingdom/i>/b>, and two series co-written with Sean Williams, b>i>Have Sword, Will Travel/i>/b> and b>i>Troubletwisters/i>/b>. /span>p>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Nix kicked off the young adult line of b>i>a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/search?qX-Files target_blank>X-Files/a>/i>/b> novelizations in 1997 with the first installment, b>i>The Calusari/i>/b>, published by Scholastic. There were 16 of these books from 1997 through 2000, all of which were written by different authors and adapted from the television show episodes. “The Calusari” was the shows twenty-first episode of the second season, originally airing April 14, 1995. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>I always enjoyed the shows monster-of-the-week episodes the most. While I love b>i>X-Files/i>/b>, I found the through-story arc with alien invasion and cover-ups way too convoluted. These unconnected, stand-alone episodes are really where the show shines, and this episode is one of the most frightening of the franchise. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>The book, at 116 pages, features an exorcist sort of take on a childs death. In the opener (pre-theme music), Maggie and her husband Steve are at a small amusement park in Virginia. They have their two small sons with them, Teddy and Charlie. In a freak occurrence, Teddy is struck by a train while pursuing a balloon that appears to be floating against the wind. The b>i>X-Files/i>/b> become involved after evidence shows the balloons trajectory and the possibility of a ghost that led Teddy to his death./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Mulder and Scully become involved in the investigation, which takes some unusual turns with Romanian customs, Charlies bizarre grandmother, Maggies unwillingness to succumb to the familys odd traditions, and marital woes in the wake of Teddys death. There is a disturbing plot element introduced that suggests Charlies dead twin may be an evil force bent on destroying the family. The Calusari emerge as the familys mysterious religious sect pitted against evil./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Novelizations are tricky. One of the most alluring aspects of these novels is the possibility of introducing a different perspective, more depth to certain film or episode scenes, different takes on the source material, or something else. b>i>The Calusari/i>/b> doesnt offer much to supplement the episode. This is nearly word-for-word a transcription of the episode, with a few perspective pieces coming from the train driver and Maggies relationship with her mother-in-law. Aside from that, this is literally an episode on paper. It was brisk, enjoyable, and I dont regret reading it.

Browning, and H.H. Harmon, Robert Moore Williams (1907-1977) authored a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/search/label/Science-Fiction?m0 target_blank>science-fiction/a> and adventure novels and short stories. He contributed his b>i>a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/search/label/Tarzan?m0 target_blank>Tarzan/a>/i>/b>-inspired series b>i>Jongor/i>/b> to the b>i>Fantastic Adventures/i>/b> pulp, and also wrote for other magazines like b>i>Amazing Stories/i>/b> and b>i>Startling Stories/i>/b>. In my search to read another doomsday novel, I chose his stand-alone 1961 Ace paperback b>i>The Day They H-Bombed Los Angeles/i>/b> (D-530)./span>p>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>As the novel begins, Tom Watkins, a former Sergeant in the U.S.M.C., is walking in the harbor area of Los Angeles when a bright splash of light engulfs the sky. He quickly realizes a bomb has decimated Pasadena and begins seeking shelter. As sirens sound, Tom and others find a fallout shelter and brace for more impacts. Earthquake tremors, more bombs, and human hysteria devour the day and night as Tom tries to survive in this hot, confined space./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>In these post-apocalyptic scenarios, alliances are naturally formed. Typically, it is the calm, cool, and collected opposing the irrational, deranged lunatics. As unsatisfied people begin leaving the shelter, Toms group hunkers down to wait for the rain to wash the fallout from the air. His group consists of an FBI agent, Toms former classmate, a spoiled Hollywood actress, an adventuresome young man, and Toms soon-to-be love interest, a woman named Cissie. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>The next day, the group leaves the shelter and heads to Cissies employer, a scientist named Dr. Smith, who lives and works in a large concrete building. Inside, the group set up a makeshift living arrangement and begin prowling the streets by day gathering guns, ammunition, and food storage. At night, the group hears an unnerving howling coming from the dark streets outside. The next morning, they find the remains of a woman that appears to have been eaten. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>On one of the supply runs, the group encounters a small group of survivors displaying bizarre behavior. The people walk/run hunched over and seem to have no regard for their own safety. They just press forward and want to kill. As the narrative unfolds, these “zombies” repeatedly attack the shelter, and the group is forced to shoot them. But as more and more are killed, there are hundreds more that take their place. Is this the b>i>Dawn of the Dead/i>/b>?/span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>No. Not really. Although the term “zombie” is thrown around a lot. This is more like the film franchise b>i>28 Days Later/i>/b> crossed with a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/search/label/Jack%20Finney?m0 target_blank>Jack Finneys/a> b>i>a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2024/10/the-body-snatchers.html?m0 target_blank>The Body Snatchers/a>/i>/b>. As Dr. Smith and the group run experiments on these infected people, they realize they are all suffering from a molecule that transforms them into killing machines. But as the molecule evolves, the humans gain intelligence to unite, create armies, and eventually commandeer airplanes. Theres a backstory on the molecule, how it was pulled from the ocean, and a far-reaching spin on evolution. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Williams narrative combines the efforts of Smith and Tom leading their respective factions against the crazies. Smiths emphasis is on research and attempts to only injure the infected. He feels he can cure them with more time. Tom is in desperation mode as the survivors defend themselves in the concrete building and on supply runs. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Ultimately, Williams used an alien invasion angle, like the aforementioned b>i>The Body Snatchers/i>/b>, to make this a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/search/label/Post%20Apocalypse?m0 target_blank>post-apocalyptic/a> tale work as science-fiction. Its a fun book loaded with tension, action, and some genuinely scary moments. But the authors dialogue is clunky and uneven, which reduces the books enjoyment. If you can get through the rough patches, then youll absolutely love this one. Recommended.

She wrote her first novel at the age of twenty and won a publishing contest in 2012. In 2019, she signed with Bloodhound Books and later became a Boldwood Books author. Shes authored numerous hits like b>i>The Sleepover/i>/b>, b>i>The Summer House/i>/b>, and b>i>Nowhere to Hide/i>/b>, making her a successful suspense writer with 14 popular novels that have sold over half a million copies. Her newest novel, b>i>Dead of Winter/i>/b>, was published in October 2025 by Boldwood Books. /span>p>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Like many modern thrillers, b>i>Dead of Winter/i>/b> is a non-linear presentation featuring chapters that weave back and forth between different years. These chapters have an emphasis on a handful of different characters that are experiencing penultimate moments that affect the books present events and the novels protagonist, a young woman named Lola./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>In the unsettling premise, Lola recounts to readers her experience of losing her mother. After her death, Lola discovers she was adopted when she was a small child. Wanting to connect with her family, she learns that she has one biological family member remaining, a wealthy brother named Daniel living in Norfolk. She reaches out to him on Facebook Messenger and is met with a rather snobby response. He wants nothing to do with her. After several months, she reaches out again and receives a cold invite to meet him at his home. Lola connects her work schedule with a stop at his house a few days before Christmas. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>On the train ride to Norfolk, Lola runs into her former boyfriend, Quinn. Readers gain the backstory on both characters, why they broke up, and the events that have led to a chance meeting on a train. Eventually, Lola arrives at Midwinter Manor, a sprawling mansion, where she is introduced to Daniel (hes confined to a wheelchair) and his rude wife, Rose. After receiving a minimum amount of information on her dead biological parents, Daniel and Rose wish Lola goodbye. Only theres a heavy snowstorm, and Lola wrecks the car leaving the couples long driveway. With no cell phone signal, shes forced to return to the couple who were so anxious to be rid of her. Shell need to spend the night with these cold-hearted strangers. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>As the evening and night unfold, the author introduces a complex tale that explains Roses involvement with Daniel, Daniels crippling injury, Lolas unique relationship with the family, and a myriad of other interesting tidbits. However, when the power goes out, things emerge from the dark that elevate the narrative from a character discovery plot to a psychological suspense novel. Daniel and Rose have secrets, including other people in the house that Lola is unaware of. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Dead of Winter is a far better book than I expected. After experiencing a few of these modern thrillers from the likes of a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2022/01/the-haunting-of-ashburn-house.html target_blank>Darcy Coates/a> and a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2023/06/one-by-one.html target_blank>Freida McFadden/a> (house name), I was anticipating a disposable airport paperback. These books typically end up as Lifetime movies or Netflix originals with a lifespan of a week. But Keri Beevis surprised me. The twist was so satisfying, and the buildup was brimming with a tension-laced atmosphere, and an invested interest in past events that paid wonderful dividends on present events directly impacting the protagonist. Beevis is a smart writer and made every detail matter. Lola is likable, Daniel is mysterious, Rose is heinous, and the other characters...well lets pretend they dont exist for now. I dont want to ruin the surprise. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Like a great a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/search/label/Gothics target_blank>gothic/a> paperback, b>i>Dead of Winter/i>/b> is the perfect escapism – a cavernous mansion, a vulnerable beauty, and scary happenings in the dark.

It begins with detonating a portion of the citys subway system. Abdul then makes a call to the police and demands millions in used $20 bills to avoid it happening again. The city pays up in a bungled attempt to tail the money grabber, and the whole thing recycles again with another planned bombing and payment.

The books that have alluded me my whole life are the YA Ballantine paperbacks that were published between 1987-1988. Ive yet to find one in the wild, but thankfully, someone scanned the series fifth installment, b stylefont-style: italic;>Jungle Raid /b>(cover by Earl Norem), and posted it to Archive.org. It was written by R.L. Stine of b>i>Goosebumps/i>/b> and b>i>Fear Street/i>/b> fame./span>p>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>In the fictitious island country of San Juego, the democratically elected government is in jeopardy of losing its nation to a terrorist leader named Raoul and his army of mercenaries. As the fighting erupts between the two nations, a plea is made to the U.S. government to send in the G.I. Joe force. Their mission is to be a peacekeeping faction to protect the innocent civilians. This brings some bitterness for team members like Law and Falcon, who are itching to get into the fight and stop Raoul./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Hawk meets with the team and announces that COBRA forces might be in San Juego conducting mind control experiments. The mission transforms from peacekeeper to investigative as a three-pronged assignment is unveiled. Chuckles will infiltrate the nearby village disguised as a laborer while searching for some sort of COBRA headquarters. Gung Ho and others will beat the bush searching for any sign of COBRA. Meanwhile, Hawk and his men will be busy defending their mobile command center from Raoul and his mercenaries. As the narrative kicks into high gear, all three parts of the assignment explode into action. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>This book begins like a typical adult mens action-adventure paperback from the likes of Pinnacle or Manor. Chuckles has a barroom run-in with village bullies and has a unique way of dealing with them. He then infiltrates the village workforce and is carted away to a secret lair where COBRA and a certain doctor are conducting experiments on villagers. This part of the book turns into a type of prison-break action formula as Chuckles battles the enemy as a prisoner. The action in the jungle expands to include familiar franchise villains like the Dreadnoks and COBRA Commander. But, theres also a central mystery included with Hawk announcing he is helping his brother in San Juego. Everyone knows Hawk doesnt have a brother, so the intrigue behind this relationship is enticing. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>I had way more fun with this b>i>G.I. Joe/i>/b> YA paperback than I ever expected to. Stines writing is flavorful, and his prose is simple yet effective with plenty of i>b>G.I. Joe/b>/i> lore that isnt that different than the animated cartoon. This reads like an episode of the show – over-the-top, totally unbelievable pulpy fun. The good guys win, the bad guys lose, America saves the day. Who can argue with that storytelling flow? b>i>Jungle Raid/i>/b> is a fun romp that begs for a repeat performance. Thankfully, Stine wrote one more of these books. Unfortunately, the series is rather expensive in the used retail market.

She was employed as a dancer, hat-check girl, and secretary, but became a novelist in the early 1960s. She authored a variety of fiction that was centered in the romance genre. She wrote a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/search/label/Gothics?m0 target_blank>gothics/a> and nurse-fiction for publishers like Lancer, Paperback Library, Belmont, Berkley, and Avon. I chose to read her first nurse novel, b>i>Nurses Dormitory/i>/b>. It was published in 1962 by Lancer, and later reprinted by Magnum Books. Cover artist uncredited./span>p>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>The novel presents the careers and personal lives of three young nurses who have just started employment at fictional St. Josephs General Hospital in an unnamed city. Brennans smooth narrative focuses on a variety of subplots that affect the lives and inner sanctum of this medical facility. By switching perspectives from these three main characters, the chapters often entwine their personal struggles at the hospital and the various patients and medical concerns affecting both their work and sleep./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>The most prominent character is Veronica, a farm girl who grew up with her childhood friend John. By earning an education and becoming a nurse, Veronica is now working at the same facility as John, a resident doctor. Veronica has loved John her entire life, so her placement as his nurse is a twofold problem. Her affection for John could jeopardize her career and derail her career ambitions. At the same time, John has always considered Veronica as a sister, yet her maturity now brings a new spark of romance to the relationship. Veronica and John are cautious in exploring this love affair, which made their portions of the narrative extremely interesting./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Susie enjoys nursing, but has an aspiration to marry into money. However, she meets Veronicas brother, a farmer, and her personal goals are ruined. She flirts with the idea of marrying for love, scoffs at the concept of becoming a farmers wife, and debates the farmers grandiose intention of having six kids. While enjoyable, their relationship struggles were the least effective portions of the narrative./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Lita is the daughter of a successful film actress. Shes pursuing her medical career despite her mothers best efforts to lead her into the life of a spoiled nepo baby. Lita is also torn between two lovers, a successful entrepreneur named Peter and the resident doctor, Mark. Both men are admirable choices, with each experiencing their own life goals and purpose. Peter wants Litas hand in marriage, but Mark is the real lover Lita is pining for. Litas struggles with Mark were laced with a mystery concerning Marks prior wife and a repressed guilt that leads him to alcohol abuse. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>While these three character studies were interesting enough, b>i>Nurses Dormitory/i>/b> surprisingly contains a tight-knit legal battle. The hospitals manager, a tightwad named Larson, has finally put the business into the black, yet his cost-cutting approach is nearly criminal. As the doctors and nurses are desperate for things like penicillin, Larson refuses to order more than a certain monthly allotment. As the doctors battle Larson, he begins restricting their use of the operating room, which leads to a showdown over a dying patient. These high-strung medical scenarios were imaginative and written well. There was also riveting patient drama with a small childs gunshot wound and attempts to save his leg from gangrene. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>While Im not a fan of TV medical dramas like b>i>Greys Anatomy/i>/b> and b>i>Chicago Med/i>/b>, reading these dramas seems to be something Im drawn to. A lot of great writers penned nurse-fiction, from the king of paperbacks a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/search/label/Harry%20Whittington?m0 target_blank>Harry Whittington/a>, to authors such as a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/search?qMax+Brand target_blank>Max Brand/a> (Frederick Faust), a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/search/label/Frank%20Slaughter target_blank>Frank Slaughter/a>, a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/search/label/Arthur%20Catherall target_blank>Arthur Catherall/a>, and a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/search?qPeggy+Gaddis target_blank>Peggy Gaddis/a>. Its an entire genre that competes, and sometimes blends, with gothic-suspense and romance. If b>i>Nurses Dormitory/i>/b> is any indication of the genres quality, then Im all in.

Wells/a>, is best known for his celebrated classic b>i>War of the Worlds/i>/b>. The book was written between 1985 and 1897, and first published in b>i>Pearsons Magazine/i>/b> in the U.K. and b>i>Cosmopolitan/i>/b> in the U.S. The serial transitioned into a novel in 1898, and has been reprinted and offered in numerous formats since then. The seminal alien invasion novel has also been adapted into radio drama, films, comics, and television./span>p>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>The novel, presented in third-person by an unnamed narrator, begins in Southeast England as a cylinder launches from Mars and arrives on Horsell Common in Surrey. The narrator approaches the pit where the capsule is laying. He then gets a neighboring journalist to accompany him and the news spreads as more and more people arrive to gaze into the pit. Eventually, the cylinders top spins open and the aliens, possessing tentacles and a beak-like moth, emerge. Within a few minutes the aliens incinerate over 40 people with a devastating heat ray. The human slaughter commences and another capsule arrives./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>The books prose intensifies with more descriptions of battle. Wells focuses a great deal on catastrophe and destruction, elevated with the emergence of the tripods, three-legged Martian fighting machines that simply annihilate military forces. Entwined in the narrative is the narrators flee with his wife to the nearby town of Leatherhead, leaving her there with relatives. The narrator (for reasons unclear to me) returns to the Woking area to witness more carnage and then the mass exodus of people abandoning London./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>The books second half (labeled Book 2) is more atmospheric as the nature of the novel expands into a more despondent post-apocalyptic tone. London, referred to as “Dead London” in chapter eight, is described as a truly dismal place littered with corpses and alien scavengers. These scavengers seemingly squeeze the blood from humans as a source of nutrients. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>The more intimate details of the books second half features the narrator and a soldier trapped in a deserted house. The narrator is concerned with his wifes safety and irritated with the soldiers deteriorating mental state. Theres a lack of food and water that adds more misery to the situation. Both characters eventually leave the house, only to find themselves trapped in another dwelling as the alien scavengers continue to scrape the streets and houses with probing tentacles. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>The books climax comes as the narrator travels into lifeless London. As he walks through wreckage he begins to hear an eerie sound emanating from the aliens. I wont ruin the surprise here, but this is a hopeful sound that eventually leads to Earths liberation from the Martian invaders. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Reviewing literary classics is challenging. These works are over a century old, and my personal exposure to their legacy – various adaptations of the material, decades of critique, imitators, and overall cultural awareness – means I have been desensitized from the novels initial grandeur. I hadnt read the book before, but I had watched the movies, heard the radio drama, and was made aware of the books importance in science-fiction and as a catalyst for the genres sub-genre of alien invasion. One watch of something as flashy as b>i>Independence Day/i>/b> (1996) makes this novels action sequences a little underwhelming. But thats a personal problem reflective of my absorption of media, not any fault of the author or the work. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>With all that in consideration, I found b>i>War of the Worlds/i>/b> to be a good novel. I enjoyed the atmosphere, and the narrators survival horror perspective. The Martians appearance as tall blood sucking creatures with large eyes, tentacles, heat rays, and deadly gas played on my fears of being flesh-squeezed by a hideous alien invader. The description of England as a lifeless and decimated husk was described in the darkest way imaginable. In post-apocalyptic situations, humans can be the worst horror of all. Wells does an excellent job presenting human suffering and the mass lunacy of everyday people forced into extreme circumstances. Selfishness and greed leads to the greatest suffering of all./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>I think my only real complaint with the book was the inability to really hone in on the narrator. Often this character would tell me things happening in other parts of England or explaining in great detail his brothers exploits to survive the invasion, including a naval battle between a battering ram and an alien. I felt that I lost the intimacy of things directly occurring with the character, his personal predicament and the things affecting only him. It took me out of the moment and made the narration more epic in nature than personal. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Needless to say, b>i>War of the Worlds/i>/b> is an important book, and a praised work of science-fiction worthy of imitation, inspiration, and discussion. Read the book and appreciate the novels legacy and impact. You wont be disappointed./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Get the book b>a hrefhttps://amzn.to/48r1OeU target_blank>HERE/a>/b>./span>/p>div styleclear: both;>/div>/div>div classpost-footer>div classpost-footer-line post-footer-line-1>span classpost-author vcard>Posted byspan classfn itempropauthor itemscopeitemscope itemtypehttp://schema.org/Person>meta contenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11237105535257849119 itempropurl/>a classg-profile hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11237105535257849119 relauthor titleauthor profile>span itempropname>Paperback Warrior/span>/a>/span>/span>span classpost-timestamp>atmeta contenthttp://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2025/12/war-of-worlds.html itempropurl/>a classtimestamp-link hrefhttp://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2025/12/war-of-worlds.html relbookmark titlepermanent link>abbr classpublished itempropdatePublished title2025-12-31T06:00:00-05:00>6:00 AM/abbr>/a>/span>span classpost-comment-link>a classcomment-link hrefhttp://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2025/12/war-of-worlds.html#comment-form onclick>No comments: /a>/span>span classpost-icons>span classitem-control blog-admin pid-432249977>a hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID923396690224673408&frompencil titleEdit Post>img alt classicon-action height18 srchttps://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif width18/>/a>/span>/span>div classpost-share-buttons goog-inline-block>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-email hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID923396690224673408&targetemail target_blank titleEmail This>span classshare-button-link-text>Email This/span>/a>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-blog hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID923396690224673408&targetblog onclickwindow.open(this.href, _blank, height270,width475); return false; target_blank titleBlogThis!>span classshare-button-link-text>BlogThis!/span>/a>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-twitter hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID923396690224673408&targettwitter target_blank titleShare to X>span classshare-button-link-text>Share to X/span>/a>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-facebook hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID923396690224673408&targetfacebook onclickwindow.open(this.href, _blank, height430,width640); return false; target_blank titleShare to Facebook>span classshare-button-link-text>Share to Facebook/span>/a>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-pinterest hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID923396690224673408&targetpinterest target_blank titleShare to Pinterest>span classshare-button-link-text>Share to Pinterest/span>/a>/div>/div>div classpost-footer-line post-footer-line-2>span classpost-labels>Labels:a hrefhttp://www.paperbackwarrior.com/search/label/Science-Fiction reltag>Science-Fiction/a>/span>/div>div classpost-footer-line post-footer-line-3>span classpost-location>/span>/div>/div>/div>/div> /div>/div> div classdate-outer> h2 classdate-header>span>Monday, December 29, 2025/span>/h2> div classdate-posts> div classpost-outer>div classpost hentry uncustomized-post-template itempropblogPost itemscopeitemscope itemtypehttp://schema.org/BlogPosting>meta contenthttps://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHb6rclXOpsRNrQD3EyQBXuWZ6MCg6LJ2I9ydgpxQFRcrxs-4-VsXro1UKX2ZSjIhUXGwyae-AztYToPvcQGMnpRnsWkQjt1KmWZNjsx4Ps18zoIuOUHLcz8uOd7Ul8Rl4ihxquzhzLlqv32yta5Ku_fSCEIAf5AXiGP_Wp5CVSMIHlYSmSv-7husSjlE/w266-h400/No%20Exit.jpg itempropimage_url/>meta content5477956438422079368 itempropblogId/>meta content1807844547036838600 itemproppostId/>a name1807844547036838600>/a>h3 classpost-title entry-title itempropname>a hrefhttp://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2025/12/no-exit.html>No Exit/a>/h3>div classpost-header>div classpost-header-line-1>/div>/div>div classpost-body entry-content idpost-body-1807844547036838600 itemproparticleBody>p>/p>div classseparator styleclear: both; text-align: center;>a hrefhttps://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHb6rclXOpsRNrQD3EyQBXuWZ6MCg6LJ2I9ydgpxQFRcrxs-4-VsXro1UKX2ZSjIhUXGwyae-AztYToPvcQGMnpRnsWkQjt1KmWZNjsx4Ps18zoIuOUHLcz8uOd7Ul8Rl4ihxquzhzLlqv32yta5Ku_fSCEIAf5AXiGP_Wp5CVSMIHlYSmSv-7husSjlE/s1500/No%20Exit.jpg styleclear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;>img border0 data-original-height1500 data-original-width997 height400 srchttps://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHb6rclXOpsRNrQD3EyQBXuWZ6MCg6LJ2I9ydgpxQFRcrxs-4-VsXro1UKX2ZSjIhUXGwyae-AztYToPvcQGMnpRnsWkQjt1KmWZNjsx4Ps18zoIuOUHLcz8uOd7Ul8Rl4ihxquzhzLlqv32yta5Ku_fSCEIAf5AXiGP_Wp5CVSMIHlYSmSv-7husSjlE/w266-h400/No%20Exit.jpg width266 />/a>/div>span stylefont-size: large;>Taylor Adams is an American thriller writer from Washington state who built his reputation on fast-paced, high-concept suspense novels that read like crackling paperback nail-biters.

You can obtain affordable digital copies of sexy a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/search/label/Spy?m0 target_blank>spy/a> series titles like b>i>Cherry Delight/i>/b> and b>i>Lady from L.U.S.T./i>/b> or sword-wielding tales starring b>i>Kothar/i>/b> or b>i>Kyrik/i>/b>. Thankfully, the library also includes numerous Fox stand-alone novels that he wrote under pseudonyms. One of those, b>i>Lady Wrestler/i>/b>, was published by Midwood (F193) in 1962 under Foxs pseudonym of James Harvey. Vintage copies of the paperback net over $200, but I was able to purchase the book for two bucks. /span>p>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>The novel opens with Bella Woods completing a short, ill-fated run of a Broadway performance. The experience left her financially devastated, emotionally depleted, and her body abused by the shows perverted producer. In bed with the sleazy promoter, Bella comes to the realization she needs a change and new life goals. An interview with a male model and entrepreneur opens up a world of possibilities: Pro-Wrestling. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Brick hires Bella to join his budding stable of female wrestlers. With these eight ladies, Brick hopes to secure a few local bookings, tap into the market share of male pro-wrestling, and secure a television deal. Its all on the up and up, and Bella rightfully trusts Brick and his tunnel vision./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Bella arrives at Bricks family farm house and meets the other wrestlers. There are women there who use gimmicks like an obese jungle native, a tatted carnival oddity, a royal Queen, a revolting slave, etc. Needless to say, it is a colorful house filled with diversity and different perspectives. Bellas conflict is with a rival ex-Broadway star named Charlotte, that is sleeping with Brick. Her other conflict is with Bricks sister, a domineering lesbian named Cleo, who rapes Bella during her first night at the house./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Through b>i>Lady Wrestler/i>/b>s narrative, readers enjoy the rags-to-riches rise of these eight women from bingo halls to a local television program. Fox weaves a multitude of minor plot points that include Bricks financial struggles, Bellas romantic flings with Brick, Cleos uprising, and the lifestyles of a few minor characters both in and out of the ring. The most satisfying plot point is a lawsuit from the television producers over Bellas indecent exposure on their programming. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>After watching the Netflix show b>i>GLOW/i>/b>, which fictionally documents the rise and fall of the womens Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling organization in the 1980s, I found so many interesting comparisons to this 1962 paperback. The characters, the TV deal, the promoter, the lifestyles – all of this is remarkably told by Fox nearly two decades before b>i>G.L.O.W./i>/b> first aired on television in 1986. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>If you enjoy pro-wrestling, then you will really enjoy b>i>Lady Wrestler/i>/b>. The gimmicks and wrestling personalities were thoroughly enjoyable, and I liked Bellas perspective of being new to the industry. However, Fox was just a serviceable writer, never great but never dull. His writing leaves something to be desired, but nonetheless has enough variance and texture to bring these characters to life, albeit a little wonky on dialogue. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>For $1.99 you cant go wrong.

The book was loosely adapted into a comedic a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/search/label/Spy target_blank>spy/a> film in 1967 with star Dean Martin. As the old saying goes, the books are always better than the movies. b>i>The Ambushers/i>/b> is proof positive./span>p>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>The book begins with Helm in a place he describes vaguely as “lets call it Costa Verde”, an unknown banana country in South America. His mission is to carry a heavy sniper rifle through the jungle, meet up with a resistance fighter named Jimenez, and help assassinate the countrys newest political rival. After snubbing a revolution, Helms job is through, and he can head back to Washington. But like most Helm novels, things dont go quite according to plan. During the successful assassination, Helm finds two surprises. First, a nuclear warhead that was probably smuggled from the Russians. Second, a former Nazi senior leader whom Helm recognizes from a prior mission. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>In Washington, Helm receives a backhanded compliment from his direct Mac – praise for succeeding on the assignment. But Macs associates scold Helm for ignoring two international threats during the mission. Defensively, cool-headed Helm dismisses their Monday morning quarterbacking and expresses interest in his next mission./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>The fallout from the assassination is now spreading into southern New Mexico. In a quiet suburb, the former Nazi leader that Helm identified is now setting up shop for a new movement. Helms job is to team with a reserved, previously traumatized agent named Sheila to expose the leader and quell this new Nazi uprising. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Hamiltons prose is a smooth telling of espionage in a conversational tone. Both Helm and Sheila work well together, creating a cohesive fighting pair that both complement each others scarred pasts. When the two find themselves at odds with a Russian spy (lovely as ever) they must jeopardize the mission to stop a much larger threat. Theres plenty of mountainous terrain, gunfire, fisticuffs, and tepid lovemaking, but the real main event is always Helms thoughts. In a generous first-person perspective, Helm talks to the reader in a way that is just uniquely captivating. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>I paired my reading of Hamiltons narrative with listening to Stefan Rudnickis gripping audio narration. Either way, your experience with b>i>The Ambushers/i>/b> will be thrilling. Highly recommended.

Gifunes/a> writing and have covered his books here on the blog and on the a hrefhttps://youtu.be/iSkMFfO0mMg target_blank>YT channel/a>. Earlier this year, I had the opportunity to exclusively reveal his newest books cover, a glorious piece by the talented Zach McCain, an internationally published artist who also created visually striking artwork for Gifunes 2022 horror novella b>i>a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2025/06/savages.html?m0 target_blank>Savages/a>/i>/b> (Cemetery Dance). Since seeing the cover for b>i>Pack Animals/i>/b> (Macabre Ink), Ive been anxiously counting the days until the books release. Finally, the hunt is over. Or is it?/span>p>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Thankfully, Gifunes writing style - an effective combination of visceral violence and horrifying psychosis - takes on one of my favorite aspects of horror. Like b>i>Savages/i>/b>, the early description for b>i>Pack Animals/i>/b> was a homage to the survival, late-night horror films of the 1970s and 1980s. Films like b>i>The Pack/i>/b>, b>i>Day of the Animals/i>/b>, b>i>The Howling/i>/b>, and b>i>Grizzly/i>/b> all sprang into my mind. This was the VHS market I grew up in in the 1980s and early 1990s, and Im always searching for that same nostalgia in pop culture./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>b>i>Pack Animals/i>/b> begins with an unknown woman arriving at a medical facility. Inside, she learns that her husband, or boyfriend, has experienced a significant trauma and now remains in a state of mental shock as his body recovers from exhaustive injuries. Inside his room, theres this heavy vacuum that seemingly sucks the hope from the room. The man is despondent and silent as he fixates on something far beyond the hospital, far beyond anything the two of them can understand./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>As the books narrative unfolds, Gifune then takes readers back to the start to explain the happenings and surroundings that have crushed the mans body and spirit. The author introduces a group of thirty-something male friends starting with Truck. He has experienced infidelity, a divorce, and a type of midlife crisis reassembling his life. He moves to an off-the-grid place nestled deep in the rural mountains of New Hampshire. Yet his peace and tranquility are shattered routinely with night visitors that hover in the treeline. Trucks defense is a shotgun, a handgun, and lots of ammunition, which sends up red flags for the tiny community. They dont trust outsiders and send one of their own to warn Truck to keep the peace. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Later, Trucks assemblage of friends arrives to spend a week with him in his newfound mountain oasis. On their drive to Trucks house, they see an old woman in a bloody nightgown walking through the forest. Later, at Trucks house, they discover theres no phone signal. This isolation becomes alarming when they find Trucks behavior unsettling. He warns the group to leave before dark, before the visitors arrive. When they refuse, Truck provides them with details on something, or someone, that he chained up in his shed. Is Truck insane, or does the darkness bring a host of Hell?/span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Im careful with reviewing Gifunes work because it is subjective. Many of his novellas and full-length novels play havoc with your imagination. Many of the horrors in the authors work present themselves differently depending on the reader. However, theres no denying that b>i>Pack Animals/i>/b> is a monster story. The books cover, title, and synopsis suggest a werewolvish type of reading experience, and I believe the lead into the books release promises survival horror. But it still possesses many of the ingredients that make Gifunes writing so good. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Trucks move to the country reminds me of the events leading to Lance Boyces move to snowy Maine in the excellent b>i>a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2025/10/lords-of-twilight.html?m0 target_blank>Lords of Twilight/a>/i>/b>, one of Gifnes best. The disturbing arrival of the town sheriff called to mind the arrival of Bob in Gifunes equally entertaining b>i>a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2025/10/the-rain-dancers.html?m0 target_blank>The Rain Dancers/a>/i>/b>. The idea of average individuals stranded and cold is a concept that Gifune often uses, most effectively in b>i>Midnight Solitaire/i>/b>. However, as much as Gifune uses his old tricks to scare us, it isnt simply a recycle. With Pack Animals, Gifune takes all of these elements and thrusts them into an action-oriented, fast-paced survival yarn that is bone-jarring horror, but equally a white-knuckled thriller. It is compared to Gifunes b>i>Savages/i>/b>, which is a fair comparison, but also something like b>i>a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2024/10/oasis-of-damned.html?m0 target_blank>Oasis of the Damned/a>/i>/b>. These stories and concepts work well because they pit vulnerable, everyday people into harrowing fight-or-flight situations that push the boundaries of mental awareness and physical exhaustion. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>I could write for days on Greg Gifunes work and how much of an impact hes made not only as an author, but also as an editor. It is novels like b>i>Pack Animals/i>/b> that remind me just how great a storyteller he is. If you are searching for an enjoyable action-oriented monster novel, pack your bags for b>i>Pack Animals/i>/b>. Its a trip worth taking./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Get the book b>a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2025/10/lords-of-twilight.html?m0 target_blank>HERE/a>/b>./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>u>Random Notes/u> – I jotted down a few things as I was reading the book that didnt necessarily fit the review. The sheriffs name of Leland made me think of the nefarious shopkeeper and rival of Sheriff Pangborn, Leland Gaunt, the star of Stephen Kings b>i>Needful Things/i>/b>. Theres a character mentioned at the end of Pack Animals named Maynard. This seems like a nod to Herman Rauchers classic horror paperback b>i>Maynards House/i>/b>. It would be remiss of me not to say that Michael McBrides own monster novel b>i>Snowblind/i>/b> came to mind as well. Both b>i>Pack Animals/i>/b> and b>i>Snowblind/i>/b> should now be the high-water mark of the survival horror genre. /span>/p>div styleclear: both;>/div>/div>div classpost-footer>div classpost-footer-line post-footer-line-1>span classpost-author vcard>Posted byspan classfn itempropauthor itemscopeitemscope itemtypehttp://schema.org/Person>meta contenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11237105535257849119 itempropurl/>a classg-profile hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11237105535257849119 relauthor titleauthor profile>span itempropname>Paperback Warrior/span>/a>/span>/span>span classpost-timestamp>atmeta contenthttp://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2025/12/pack-animals.html itempropurl/>a classtimestamp-link hrefhttp://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2025/12/pack-animals.html relbookmark titlepermanent link>abbr classpublished itempropdatePublished title2025-12-23T06:00:00-05:00>6:00 AM/abbr>/a>/span>span classpost-comment-link>a classcomment-link hrefhttp://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2025/12/pack-animals.html#comment-form onclick>No comments: /a>/span>span classpost-icons>span classitem-control blog-admin pid-432249977>a hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID1811684958505502653&frompencil titleEdit Post>img alt classicon-action height18 srchttps://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif width18/>/a>/span>/span>div classpost-share-buttons goog-inline-block>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-email hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID1811684958505502653&targetemail target_blank titleEmail This>span classshare-button-link-text>Email This/span>/a>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-blog hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID1811684958505502653&targetblog onclickwindow.open(this.href, _blank, height270,width475);

She was a founding member of the Society of Women Geographers and was honored with a Womens National Book Award. Im always searching for an entertaining prison-themed adventure, so I decided to read her novel b>i>Condemned to Devils Island/i>/b>, which was published as a hardcover in 1928 and adapted into a film in 1929./span>p>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Niles authored the book after interviewing an unnamed French prisoner, named “Michael” in the book, that was serving a sentence at the notorious Bagne de Cayenne, referred to as “Devils Island”, in French Guiana. In flashback scenes, readers learn of Michaels servitude to a Russian Prince and his descent into criminality, leading to a temporary prison sentence in France before being sentenced to seven years of hard labor on the island. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>When the book begins, Michael is jovial about the trip, looking forward to the passage by boat to the island and seeing a new land full of possibilities. He makes friends with another inmate named Felix and the two converse about their pasts and the opportunities that lie ahead on this new island of imprisonment. Despite the horrific aura of Devils Island, Michael is in a blissful state of denial. He never seems to fully grip his real undertaking here./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>As the book expands into the cumbersome chores of prison life, Michael becomes a type of prison courier that works in the village. At night hes behind bars in the less restrictive dormitory portion of the facility, and by day he socializes and gathers gossip that he later trades for various goods in the prison. Eventually Michael develops a relationship with a wardens wife in town and makes a few escape attempts to no avail./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>b>i>Condemned to Devils Island/i>/b> isnt a mens action-adventure prison break novel. Instead, this is simply a character study in the form of a tepid melodrama about Michaels hopes and desires behind prison walls. In fairness, I barely finished the book and found myself skipping entire sections of pointless deliberation between characters over tedious things. This book was a sluggish bore and I cant recommend it to anyone. If you want a more inspiring prison-break adventure try Henri Charrieres b>i>Papillon/i>/b> (1969), Peter McCurtins b>i>a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2018/11/escape-from-devils-island.html target_blank>Escape from Devils Island/a>/i>/b> (1971), or Rene Belbenoits b>i>Dry Guillotine/i>/b> (1938)./span>/p>div styleclear: both;>/div>/div>div classpost-footer>div classpost-footer-line post-footer-line-1>span classpost-author vcard>Posted byspan classfn itempropauthor itemscopeitemscope itemtypehttp://schema.org/Person>meta contenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11237105535257849119 itempropurl/>a classg-profile hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11237105535257849119 relauthor titleauthor profile>span itempropname>Paperback Warrior/span>/a>/span>/span>span classpost-timestamp>atmeta contenthttp://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2025/12/condemned-to-devils-island.html itempropurl/>a classtimestamp-link hrefhttp://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2025/12/condemned-to-devils-island.html relbookmark titlepermanent link>abbr classpublished itempropdatePublished title2025-12-22T06:00:00-05:00>6:00 AM/abbr>/a>/span>span classpost-comment-link>a classcomment-link hrefhttp://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2025/12/condemned-to-devils-island.html#comment-form onclick>No comments: /a>/span>span classpost-icons>span classitem-control blog-admin pid-432249977>a hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID7225726395048028426&frompencil titleEdit Post>img alt classicon-action height18 srchttps://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif width18/>/a>/span>/span>div classpost-share-buttons goog-inline-block>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-email hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID7225726395048028426&targetemail target_blank titleEmail This>span classshare-button-link-text>Email This/span>/a>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-blog hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID7225726395048028426&targetblog onclickwindow.open(this.href, _blank, height270,width475);

Fracassi has authored seven total novels and an additional eight novellas/shorts. His literary work has earned numerous awards including a Bram Stoker for his collection b>i>Beneath a Pale Sky/i>/b> (2021). Despite the wordy title, I was looking forward to reading his slasher novel b>i>The Autumn Springs Retirement Home Massacre/i>/b>, published by Tor in a hardcover in 2025./span>p>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>The Autumn Springs Retirement Home is an upstate New York dwelling focused on seniors living their best life. The complex contains an apartment building, a dining hall, gym, sports area, a pond, medical center and a creepy abandoned mental asylum. Intersecting the home and surrounding grounds are colored paths leading to certain areas. Surrounding the complex is dense forest, a fire tower, and a railroad. Theres no doubt Fracassi knew how to isolate these characters and reader. Atmosphere is everything in horror./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>The books protagonist is Rose, a former high school teacher now retired and comfortably living her late 70s at Autumn Springs. She has a semi-boyfriend named Miller, a retired professor that adores her. She spends her time watching mystery and crime dramas with Miller while engaging with a handful of close friends. But her peaceful tranquility is about to become shattered./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Readers are periodically removed from Roses life and thrust into various rooms with a masked killer. This masked killer commits acts of ruthless violence on the homes residents, but stages each murder to appear self-inflicted or an accident. A man is thrown from a fire tower after a lifetime of searching for alien life in the skies (accident?), a man cuts his wrist in the bathtub after his lover is killed (suicide?), another man drowns in the local pond (accident?). As the body count rises, Rose is forced into action as the obligatory amateur detective. While the real detective, a nice but useless character named Hastings, spins his wheels searching for answers, Rose is on the offensive tracking down clues to learn the identity of the killer and his/her motive./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>b>i>The Autumn Springs Retirement Home Massacre/i>/b> could have easily been authored by an early 20th century mystery writer like a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2025/02/the-sister-of-cain.html target_blank>Mary Collins/a>, a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2024/07/disturbance-on-berry-hill.html target_blank>Elizabeth Fenwick/a>, or Charlotte Armstrong. Sure, the novel works just as good as a b>i>Scream /i>/b>slasher, but I found the narrative brimming over with a thick mystery, a claustrophobic tightening of suspects, and an admirable amateur detective Hellbent on destroying her opponent. But, like a formulaic 80s slasher, plausibility is thrown away. How the killer can move effortlessly around so many people – security guards, doctors, nurses, residents - while creating this much chaos is unresolved. While the killers identity makes it seem possible, one must still suspend disbelief. I nabbed the killer in the opening act. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Aside from the horror and mystery aspect, I felt like Fracassis telling of these seniors and their lifestyles was very touching. Rose is an endearing character, one of the best Ive come across in ages. Her intimacy struggles with Miller, her familial relationship with her daughter, and her history with an ex-husband are all very real and very meaningful. Roses life story, revealed in the books final act, proves shes a viable fighter worthy of being deemed “the final girl”. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>b>i>The Autumn Springs Retirement Home Massacre/i>/b> is an exhilarating whodunit that possesses a uniqueness – the murder of an aging population already braced for death. This peek into the world of our elders was a surreal glimpse at mortality.

1980s and 1990s. I ve reviewed a few of them here on PW, and created a hrefhttps://youtu.be/Vcraj9Yv2ro?si1rSimsjzZiILWhYW target_blank>videos/a> discussing these novels. I discovered a series recently that was new to me, b>i>Babysitters Nightmares/i>/b>. This was a short-lived, four-book series of stand-alone thrillers published by HarperPaperbacks, the a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/search/label/Young%20Adult?m0 target_blank>young adult/a> division of HarperCollins, in 1995. My experience comes by way of b>i>A Killer in the House/i>/b>, the series last installment, authored by J.H. Carroll. /span>p>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Sue is a high school student earning extra income by babysitting the Andersons young son. One night, she stumbles on an envelope left under the typewriter of Mr. Anderson. Inside, she discovers a check being paid to a person identified as R. Stoud for $125K. This fat check leads Sue into a search for who Mr. Anderson really is and what led to his wealth. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Partnering with her friend Lydia and friend Brett, Sue begins an investigation that leads to some really dark places. Apparently, Mrs. Anderson may have killed her prior husband, stolen his money, and set up a new identity. Is she a black widow preying on rich men? Is Mr. Anderson the next victim?/span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>b>i>A Killer in the House/i>/b> isnt the novel I thought it would be. I was prepared for a home-invasion setup with some sadistic psychopath breaking in on a babysitters shift. Maybe something like the film b>i>Black Christmas/i>/b>, playing up the killer in the house title. Remember “the calls are coming from inside the house”? Instead, this short novel is a crime-fiction endeavor with the lead researching the suspects former employer, a trip to the library for archived press clippings, a discussion at a New York Mets game, and other low-tension affairs. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>While the finale produced some gunfire, fisticuffs, and a few surprises, the book is generally going to attract fans of b>i>Nancy Drew/i>/b> or b>i>The Hardy Boys/i>/b>.

He elected to play professional baseball in the 1950s, but left the sport after just 25 games and two seasons. His first published novel was b>i>Snowkill/i>/b>, published in 1970. He authored 14 more books before his passing, most of which are high adventure novels that incorporate skiing, mountain climbing, and philosophy. His intense thriller b>i>The Wolf in the Clouds/i>/b> is an avalanche-themed survival novel that also features a deranged psychopath. The book was originally published as a hardcover by Bobbs-Merrill Company in 1977 and in paperback by Popular Library the same year. /span>p>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Jack is a family man with a wife and two young children. He works for the U.S. Forestry Service and specializes in avalanche prevention and recovery. As the book begins, Jacks co-worker Frank arrives at Jacks house and explains that their assignment is to retrieve three college kids who have vacationed in a secluded, faraway cabin near the top of fictitious Mt. Wolf. As the two leave the house, Jacks wife begs him to consider moving his job to a different area of expertise or a safer geographical area. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>En route to the base of the mountain, Jack discovers Frank has brought a rifle for the rescue mission. In a philosophical debate that permeates throughout the novel, Jack argues that the gun is not the answer. He questions Franks intentions and explains that the homicidal maniac was once a friend and co-worker. Its explained that the maniac is Ralph, a quiet man who befriended Jack a year or two earlier on the job. Ralph even rescued Jack during an avalanche, so the two share a bond. Yet, Jack understands Ralphs psychotic tendencies. The killer murdered his landlord and shot several skiers before running from fugitives into the icy wilderness. Hes a mass shooter on the run, which is ultimately Franks defense in bringing a rifle for the rescue. Smart guy./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Eventually, Jack and Frank reach the mountaintop and meet with the three college kids. Ralph arrives as well, and all Hell breaks loose. People are shot and killed, Ralph takes the cabin and captures Jack and two college kids. The novels second half is a high-tension cat-and-mouse affair as Jack talks with Ralph to de-escalate the situation. Yet without a gun, Jack realizes his efforts are useless and likely to cost him his life. No one is getting out of the cabin without a struggle./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>b>i>The Wolf in the Clouds/i>/b> is an excellent thriller that incorporates philosophy and high adventure. Jack is aloof and weak, the opposite of a paperback warrior. The idea of combatting violence without violence sounds great in theory, but spells disaster for these college kids and Jack. Despite Jacks efforts to talk to Ralph, the maniac ultimately descends into some really dark places fueled by sexual frustration, psychotic fantasies, and a deep desire to kill people to liberate their Earthly bodies for a space trip. Ralph is the cult leader without a cult, Jack is the white-hatted hero without a gun. Faust blends all of these into a fascinating novel that piqued my interest in his bibliography. Recommended.

They could use a seasoned detective./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Victory is a shithole among shitholes resembling b>i>Sin City/i>/b> from the Frank Miller comic books. Dangerous thugs wielding pipes are everywhere. The “Welcome to Victory” sign at the city limits is smeared with excrement greeting visitors with miles of dilapidated tenements and dead pigeons adorning every street./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Bettinger’s first case in Victory is a murder-rape (in that order) on Ganston Street, and the book starts looking like a normal police procedural. Not so fast! Zahler’s plotting takes two abrupt turns becoming an investigation into police corruption, then a violent serial killer manhunt./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Ganston Street’s characters are vivid and morally-ambiguous. Characters that stand on virtue are dragged into the muck when a case becomes personal. As a lead character, Bettinger is super-smart and capable. But the real star of the novel is the dungheap town of Victory. Zahler pours it on thick making Victory far-and-away the most putrid city in America — making Gary, Indiana look like Downtown Disney./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>To enjoy a Zahler book, you need to be comfortable with an extreme amount of graphic violence. A rotting pigeon is shoved down the throat of a non-compliant subject. Brain matter splatters against the ceiling in an office suicide. All of this is in service if the plot and never gratuitous, but you need to make peace with these sequences as a reader. Some of the descriptions were hard to read./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>The mysteries of the novel are all neatly resolved by the end with characters having gone to hell and back to bring these matters to a close. b>i>Mean Business on Ganson Street/i>/b> isn’t Zahler’s masterpiece (that would be b>i>a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2025/06/the-slanted-gutter.html?m0 target_blank>The Slanted Gutter/a>/i>/b>), but it’s a damn-fine xxxtreme police procedural mystery-crime-corruption-vendetta novel that will keep you glued to the pages. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Get the book b>a hrefhttps://amzn.to/49DeLmp target_blank>HERE/a>/b>./span>/p>div styleclear: both;>/div>/div>div classpost-footer>div classpost-footer-line post-footer-line-1>span classpost-author vcard>Posted byspan classfn itempropauthor itemscopeitemscope itemtypehttp://schema.org/Person>meta contenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11237105535257849119 itempropurl/>a classg-profile hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11237105535257849119 relauthor titleauthor profile>span itempropname>Paperback Warrior/span>/a>/span>/span>span classpost-timestamp>atmeta contenthttp://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2026/01/mean-business-on-north-ganson-street.html itempropurl/>a classtimestamp-link hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2026/01/mean-business-on-north-ganson-street.html relbookmark titlepermanent link>abbr classpublished itempropdatePublished title2026-01-19T06:00:00-05:00>6:00 AM/abbr>/a>/span>span classpost-comment-link>a classcomment-link hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2026/01/mean-business-on-north-ganson-street.html#comment-form onclick>No comments: /a>/span>span classpost-icons>span classitem-control blog-admin pid-432249977>a hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID3854033912023228509&frompencil titleEdit Post>img alt classicon-action height18 srchttps://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif width18/>/a>/span>/span>div classpost-share-buttons goog-inline-block>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-email hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID3854033912023228509&targetemail target_blank titleEmail This>span classshare-button-link-text>Email This/span>/a>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-blog hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID3854033912023228509&targetblog onclickwindow.open(this.href, _blank, height270,width475); return false; target_blank titleBlogThis!>span classshare-button-link-text>BlogThis!/span>/a>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-twitter hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID3854033912023228509&targettwitter target_blank titleShare to X>span classshare-button-link-text>Share to X/span>/a>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-facebook hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID3854033912023228509&targetfacebook onclickwindow.open(this.href, _blank, height430,width640); return false; target_blank titleShare to Facebook>span classshare-button-link-text>Share to Facebook/span>/a>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-pinterest hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID3854033912023228509&targetpinterest target_blank titleShare to Pinterest>span classshare-button-link-text>Share to Pinterest/span>/a>/div>/div>div classpost-footer-line post-footer-line-2>span classpost-labels>Labels:a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/search/label/S.%20Craig%20Zahler reltag>S.

However, his reputation is mostly synonymous with the ghost story b>i>The Turn of the Screw/i>/b>. The work was originally published in b>i>Colliers Weekly/i>/b> in 1898, then reprinted in numerous formats as part of b>i>The Two Magics /i>/b>collection, b>i>The Aspern Papers/i>/b>, and stand-alone editions by a variety of publishers. Maintaining the novellas relevancy are the endless adaptations. There have been at least seven film adaptations, ten television series productions, numerous stage performances, and a radio play. I read and enjoyed the book when I was much younger. As part of my collaboration with Nick Anderson at The Book Graveyard, I agreed to revisit the novella for a discussion on a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/search/label/Gothics?m0 target_blank>gothic/a> paperbacks. /span>p>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>The basis of the novella is told in first-person perspective from an unnamed narrator. She is the newly hired governess for a boy and a girl living in a large country house in Essex, England. While ages are never provided, I guess that Miles is around 14-16 years of age. He was attending boarding school and has been dismissed for the summer. Later, it is disclosed through a letter that Miles has been permanently kicked out of the school for some undisclosed act. Flora is Miles younger sister. Based on clues in the novel, I speculate she is around 4-5 years of age. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Through the narrative, the governess learns that two of her predecessors mysteriously died. While outside on the front lawn, the governess looks up to see a strange man inside the house walking along the tower. Later, the governess sees a malevolent woman dressed in black standing near the children. These appearances continue throughout the narrative, leading readers to question the narrators mental state. In the narrators defense, the children behave as if they see these two people as well. Later, the governess describes the people to Mrs. Grose, the housekeeper, and she confirms that these two entities could be the prior “dead” predecessors that tutored the children. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>b>i>The Turn of the Screw/i>/b> is a difficult novella to read. The prose and language are Victorian, creating abrasion for readers (i.e. “presumable sequestration”). The most straightforward scenes are described in abstract details that blur the actual events. There is too much anonymity to allow readers to connect to these characters, a strangeness that constructs and seals too many details. I conclude that James purposefully wrote the work in a vague way to create an air of mystery in the whole text. Either this presentation will work for you or it wont. The first time I read the novella, I was intrigued and overly enthusiastic about it. This time, I found the writing tedious and the pace sluggish./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>While there are terrifying moments, the way they are described isnt captivating or revealing. Perhaps at the time of publication, this had more of an impact, but in 2025, the horror is tepid at best. I think Im more moved by the general idea of the novella and the inspiration it provided for gothic paperbacks and films (b>i>The Others/i>/b>, b>i>The Woman in Black/i>/b> come to mind). Theres no questioning the works positive impact on modern thrillers and horror, and for that reason, Im appreciative of James contribution to the genre. You owe it to yourself to read the novella and come to your own conclusions./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Get a version you like b>a hrefhttp://affiliates.abebooks.com/c/58313/77798/2029?uhttps%3A%2F%2Fwww.abebooks.com%2Fservlet%2FSearchResults%3Fan%3DHenry%2520James%26bi%3D0%26bx%3Doff%26ds%3D30%26n%3D-1%26prc%3DUSD%26servlet%3DImpactRadiusAffiliateLinkEntry%26sortby%3D20%26tn%3DThe%2520Turn%2520of%2520the%2520Screw target_blank>HERE/a>/b>./span>/p>div styleclear: both;>/div>/div>div classpost-footer>div classpost-footer-line post-footer-line-1>span classpost-author vcard>Posted byspan classfn itempropauthor itemscopeitemscope itemtypehttp://schema.org/Person>meta contenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11237105535257849119 itempropurl/>a classg-profile hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11237105535257849119 relauthor titleauthor profile>span itempropname>Paperback Warrior/span>/a>/span>/span>span classpost-timestamp>atmeta contenthttp://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2026/01/the-turn-of-screw.html itempropurl/>a classtimestamp-link hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2026/01/the-turn-of-screw.html relbookmark titlepermanent link>abbr classpublished itempropdatePublished title2026-01-16T06:00:00-05:00>6:00 AM/abbr>/a>/span>span classpost-comment-link>a classcomment-link hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2026/01/the-turn-of-screw.html#comment-form onclick>No comments: /a>/span>span classpost-icons>span classitem-control blog-admin pid-432249977>a hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID6059288516341766624&frompencil titleEdit Post>img alt classicon-action height18 srchttps://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif width18/>/a>/span>/span>div classpost-share-buttons goog-inline-block>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-email hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID6059288516341766624&targetemail target_blank titleEmail This>span classshare-button-link-text>Email This/span>/a>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-blog hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID6059288516341766624&targetblog onclickwindow.open(this.href, _blank, height270,width475);

He created and wrote the fantasy series b>i>Old Kingdom/i>/b>, consisting of six novels, as well as young-adult fantasy titles like b>i>The Seventh Tower/i>/b>, b>i>The Keys to the Kingdom/i>/b>, and two series co-written with Sean Williams, b>i>Have Sword, Will Travel/i>/b> and b>i>Troubletwisters/i>/b>. /span>p>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Nix kicked off the young adult line of b>i>a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/search?qX-Files target_blank>X-Files/a>/i>/b> novelizations in 1997 with the first installment, b>i>The Calusari/i>/b>, published by Scholastic. There were 16 of these books from 1997 through 2000, all of which were written by different authors and adapted from the television show episodes. “The Calusari” was the shows twenty-first episode of the second season, originally airing April 14, 1995. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>I always enjoyed the shows monster-of-the-week episodes the most. While I love b>i>X-Files/i>/b>, I found the through-story arc with alien invasion and cover-ups way too convoluted. These unconnected, stand-alone episodes are really where the show shines, and this episode is one of the most frightening of the franchise. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>The book, at 116 pages, features an exorcist sort of take on a childs death. In the opener (pre-theme music), Maggie and her husband Steve are at a small amusement park in Virginia. They have their two small sons with them, Teddy and Charlie. In a freak occurrence, Teddy is struck by a train while pursuing a balloon that appears to be floating against the wind.

The Calusari emerge as the familys mysterious religious sect pitted against evil./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Novelizations are tricky. One of the most alluring aspects of these novels is the possibility of introducing a different perspective, more depth to certain film or episode scenes, different takes on the source material, or something else. b>i>The Calusari/i>/b> doesnt offer much to supplement the episode. This is nearly word-for-word a transcription of the episode, with a few perspective pieces coming from the train driver and Maggies relationship with her mother-in-law. Aside from that, this is literally an episode on paper. It was brisk, enjoyable, and I dont regret reading it.

Browning, and H.H. Harmon, Robert Moore Williams (1907-1977) authored a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/search/label/Science-Fiction?m0 target_blank>science-fiction/a> and adventure novels and short stories. He contributed his b>i>a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/search/label/Tarzan?m0 target_blank>Tarzan/a>/i>/b>-inspired series b>i>Jongor/i>/b> to the b>i>Fantastic Adventures/i>/b> pulp, and also wrote for other magazines like b>i>Amazing Stories/i>/b> and b>i>Startling Stories/i>/b>. In my search to read another doomsday novel, I chose his stand-alone 1961 Ace paperback b>i>The Day They H-Bombed Los Angeles/i>/b> (D-530)./span>p>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>As the novel begins, Tom Watkins, a former Sergeant in the U.S.M.C., is walking in the harbor area of Los Angeles when a bright splash of light engulfs the sky. He quickly realizes a bomb has decimated Pasadena and begins seeking shelter. As sirens sound, Tom and others find a fallout shelter and brace for more impacts. Earthquake tremors, more bombs, and human hysteria devour the day and night as Tom tries to survive in this hot, confined space./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>In these post-apocalyptic scenarios, alliances are naturally formed. Typically, it is the calm, cool, and collected opposing the irrational, deranged lunatics. As unsatisfied people begin leaving the shelter, Toms group hunkers down to wait for the rain to wash the fallout from the air. His group consists of an FBI agent, Toms former classmate, a spoiled Hollywood actress, an adventuresome young man, and Toms soon-to-be love interest, a woman named Cissie. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>The next day, the group leaves the shelter and heads to Cissies employer, a scientist named Dr. Smith, who lives and works in a large concrete building. Inside, the group set up a makeshift living arrangement and begin prowling the streets by day gathering guns, ammunition, and food storage. At night, the group hears an unnerving howling coming from the dark streets outside. The next morning, they find the remains of a woman that appears to have been eaten. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>On one of the supply runs, the group encounters a small group of survivors displaying bizarre behavior. The people walk/run hunched over and seem to have no regard for their own safety. They just press forward and want to kill. As the narrative unfolds, these “zombies” repeatedly attack the shelter, and the group is forced to shoot them. But as more and more are killed, there are hundreds more that take their place. Is this the b>i>Dawn of the Dead/i>/b>?/span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>No. Not really. Although the term “zombie” is thrown around a lot. This is more like the film franchise b>i>28 Days Later/i>/b> crossed with a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/search/label/Jack%20Finney?m0 target_blank>Jack Finneys/a> b>i>a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2024/10/the-body-snatchers.html?m0 target_blank>The Body Snatchers/a>/i>/b>. As Dr. Smith and the group run experiments on these infected people, they realize they are all suffering from a molecule that transforms them into killing machines. But as the molecule evolves, the humans gain intelligence to unite, create armies, and eventually commandeer airplanes. Theres a backstory on the molecule, how it was pulled from the ocean, and a far-reaching spin on evolution. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Williams narrative combines the efforts of Smith and Tom leading their respective factions against the crazies. Smiths emphasis is on research and attempts to only injure the infected. He feels he can cure them with more time. Tom is in desperation mode as the survivors defend themselves in the concrete building and on supply runs. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Ultimately, Williams used an alien invasion angle, like the aforementioned b>i>The Body Snatchers/i>/b>, to make this a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/search/label/Post%20Apocalypse?m0 target_blank>post-apocalyptic/a> tale work as science-fiction. Its a fun book loaded with tension, action, and some genuinely scary moments. But the authors dialogue is clunky and uneven, which reduces the books enjoyment. If you can get through the rough patches, then youll absolutely love this one. Recommended.

She wrote her first novel at the age of twenty and won a publishing contest in 2012. In 2019, she signed with Bloodhound Books and later became a Boldwood Books author. Shes authored numerous hits like b>i>The Sleepover/i>/b>, b>i>The Summer House/i>/b>, and b>i>Nowhere to Hide/i>/b>, making her a successful suspense writer with 14 popular novels that have sold over half a million copies. Her newest novel, b>i>Dead of Winter/i>/b>, was published in October 2025 by Boldwood Books. /span>p>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Like many modern thrillers, b>i>Dead of Winter/i>/b> is a non-linear presentation featuring chapters that weave back and forth between different years. These chapters have an emphasis on a handful of different characters that are experiencing penultimate moments that affect the books present events and the novels protagonist, a young woman named Lola./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>In the unsettling premise, Lola recounts to readers her experience of losing her mother. After her death, Lola discovers she was adopted when she was a small child. Wanting to connect with her family, she learns that she has one biological family member remaining, a wealthy brother named Daniel living in Norfolk. She reaches out to him on Facebook Messenger and is met with a rather snobby response. He wants nothing to do with her. After several months, she reaches out again and receives a cold invite to meet him at his home. Lola connects her work schedule with a stop at his house a few days before Christmas. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>On the train ride to Norfolk, Lola runs into her former boyfriend, Quinn. Readers gain the backstory on both characters, why they broke up, and the events that have led to a chance meeting on a train. Eventually, Lola arrives at Midwinter Manor, a sprawling mansion, where she is introduced to Daniel (hes confined to a wheelchair) and his rude wife, Rose. After receiving a minimum amount of information on her dead biological parents, Daniel and Rose wish Lola goodbye. Only theres a heavy snowstorm, and Lola wrecks the car leaving the couples long driveway. With no cell phone signal, shes forced to return to the couple who were so anxious to be rid of her. Shell need to spend the night with these cold-hearted strangers. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>As the evening and night unfold, the author introduces a complex tale that explains Roses involvement with Daniel, Daniels crippling injury, Lolas unique relationship with the family, and a myriad of other interesting tidbits. However, when the power goes out, things emerge from the dark that elevate the narrative from a character discovery plot to a psychological suspense novel. Daniel and Rose have secrets, including other people in the house that Lola is unaware of. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Dead of Winter is a far better book than I expected. After experiencing a few of these modern thrillers from the likes of a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2022/01/the-haunting-of-ashburn-house.html target_blank>Darcy Coates/a> and a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2023/06/one-by-one.html target_blank>Freida McFadden/a> (house name), I was anticipating a disposable airport paperback. These books typically end up as Lifetime movies or Netflix originals with a lifespan of a week. But Keri Beevis surprised me. The twist was so satisfying, and the buildup was brimming with a tension-laced atmosphere, and an invested interest in past events that paid wonderful dividends on present events directly impacting the protagonist. Beevis is a smart writer and made every detail matter. Lola is likable, Daniel is mysterious, Rose is heinous, and the other characters...well lets pretend they dont exist for now. I dont want to ruin the surprise. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Like a great a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/search/label/Gothics target_blank>gothic/a> paperback, b>i>Dead of Winter/i>/b> is the perfect escapism – a cavernous mansion, a vulnerable beauty, and scary happenings in the dark.

Its a splintered faction from the Black Panthers, but with a deadly alliance formed with Chinese terrorists.

It begins with detonating a portion of the citys subway system. Abdul then makes a call to the police and demands millions in used $20 bills to avoid it happening again. The city pays up in a bungled attempt to tail the money grabber, and the whole thing recycles again with another planned bombing and payment. Thankfully, one man can stop the deadly game./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Hardin uses a tanning cream to make himself appear to be a nonchalant black guy in Harlem. He practices “acting black” in his hotel room to get the dialect and mannerisms down. He then infiltrates various cells, taking information by force and kicking balls along the way. The narratives most interesting bit is an uneasy alliance with the books eye candy, a secretive counter-intelligence woman who wants to nail a weapons distributor providing explosives to Black Gold. Theres also a small sidestep with a female detective captured by the gang and then raped./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>These books are violent pulpy fun, and both authors that contribute to the series never take it too seriously. Cunningham is a great storyteller and invests enough of the page count in providing character development on the factions unique leader, as well as planting enough mystery behind Hardins female counterpart in the book.

The books that have alluded me my whole life are the YA Ballantine paperbacks that were published between 1987-1988. Ive yet to find one in the wild, but thankfully, someone scanned the series fifth installment, b stylefont-style: italic;>Jungle Raid /b>(cover by Earl Norem), and posted it to Archive.org. It was written by R.L. Stine of b>i>Goosebumps/i>/b> and b>i>Fear Street/i>/b> fame./span>p>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>In the fictitious island country of San Juego, the democratically elected government is in jeopardy of losing its nation to a terrorist leader named Raoul and his army of mercenaries. As the fighting erupts between the two nations, a plea is made to the U.S. government to send in the G.I. Joe force. Their mission is to be a peacekeeping faction to protect the innocent civilians. This brings some bitterness for team members like Law and Falcon, who are itching to get into the fight and stop Raoul./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Hawk meets with the team and announces that COBRA forces might be in San Juego conducting mind control experiments. The mission transforms from peacekeeper to investigative as a three-pronged assignment is unveiled. Chuckles will infiltrate the nearby village disguised as a laborer while searching for some sort of COBRA headquarters. Gung Ho and others will beat the bush searching for any sign of COBRA. Meanwhile, Hawk and his men will be busy defending their mobile command center from Raoul and his mercenaries. As the narrative kicks into high gear, all three parts of the assignment explode into action. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>This book begins like a typical adult mens action-adventure paperback from the likes of Pinnacle or Manor. Chuckles has a barroom run-in with village bullies and has a unique way of dealing with them. He then infiltrates the village workforce and is carted away to a secret lair where COBRA and a certain doctor are conducting experiments on villagers. This part of the book turns into a type of prison-break action formula as Chuckles battles the enemy as a prisoner. The action in the jungle expands to include familiar franchise villains like the Dreadnoks and COBRA Commander. But, theres also a central mystery included with Hawk announcing he is helping his brother in San Juego. Everyone knows Hawk doesnt have a brother, so the intrigue behind this relationship is enticing. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>I had way more fun with this b>i>G.I.

Joe/b>/i> lore that isnt that different than the animated cartoon. This reads like an episode of the show – over-the-top, totally unbelievable pulpy fun. The good guys win, the bad guys lose, America saves the day. Who can argue with that storytelling flow? b>i>Jungle Raid/i>/b> is a fun romp that begs for a repeat performance. Thankfully, Stine wrote one more of these books. Unfortunately, the series is rather expensive in the used retail market.

She wrote a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/search/label/Gothics?m0 target_blank>gothics/a> and nurse-fiction for publishers like Lancer, Paperback Library, Belmont, Berkley, and Avon. I chose to read her first nurse novel, b>i>Nurses Dormitory/i>/b>. It was published in 1962 by Lancer, and later reprinted by Magnum Books. Cover artist uncredited./span>p>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>The novel presents the careers and personal lives of three young nurses who have just started employment at fictional St. Josephs General Hospital in an unnamed city. Brennans smooth narrative focuses on a variety of subplots that affect the lives and inner sanctum of this medical facility. By switching perspectives from these three main characters, the chapters often entwine their personal struggles at the hospital and the various patients and medical concerns affecting both their work and sleep./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>The most prominent character is Veronica, a farm girl who grew up with her childhood friend John. By earning an education and becoming a nurse, Veronica is now working at the same facility as John, a resident doctor. Veronica has loved John her entire life, so her placement as his nurse is a twofold problem. Her affection for John could jeopardize her career and derail her career ambitions. At the same time, John has always considered Veronica as a sister, yet her maturity now brings a new spark of romance to the relationship. Veronica and John are cautious in exploring this love affair, which made their portions of the narrative extremely interesting./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Susie enjoys nursing, but has an aspiration to marry into money. However, she meets Veronicas brother, a farmer, and her personal goals are ruined. She flirts with the idea of marrying for love, scoffs at the concept of becoming a farmers wife, and debates the farmers grandiose intention of having six kids. While enjoyable, their relationship struggles were the least effective portions of the narrative./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Lita is the daughter of a successful film actress. Shes pursuing her medical career despite her mothers best efforts to lead her into the life of a spoiled nepo baby. Lita is also torn between two lovers, a successful entrepreneur named Peter and the resident doctor, Mark. Both men are admirable choices, with each experiencing their own life goals and purpose. Peter wants Litas hand in marriage, but Mark is the real lover Lita is pining for. Litas struggles with Mark were laced with a mystery concerning Marks prior wife and a repressed guilt that leads him to alcohol abuse. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>While these three character studies were interesting enough, b>i>Nurses Dormitory/i>/b> surprisingly contains a tight-knit legal battle. The hospitals manager, a tightwad named Larson, has finally put the business into the black, yet his cost-cutting approach is nearly criminal. As the doctors and nurses are desperate for things like penicillin, Larson refuses to order more than a certain monthly allotment. As the doctors battle Larson, he begins restricting their use of the operating room, which leads to a showdown over a dying patient. These high-strung medical scenarios were imaginative and written well. There was also riveting patient drama with a small childs gunshot wound and attempts to save his leg from gangrene. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>While Im not a fan of TV medical dramas like b>i>Greys Anatomy/i>/b> and b>i>Chicago Med/i>/b>, reading these dramas seems to be something Im drawn to. A lot of great writers penned nurse-fiction, from the king of paperbacks a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/search/label/Harry%20Whittington?m0 target_blank>Harry Whittington/a>, to authors such as a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/search?qMax+Brand target_blank>Max Brand/a> (Frederick Faust), a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/search/label/Frank%20Slaughter target_blank>Frank Slaughter/a>, a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/search/label/Arthur%20Catherall target_blank>Arthur Catherall/a>, and a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/search?qPeggy+Gaddis target_blank>Peggy Gaddis/a>. Its an entire genre that competes, and sometimes blends, with gothic-suspense and romance. If b>i>Nurses Dormitory/i>/b> is any indication of the genres quality, then Im all in. I enjoyed the characters, the development, the pace, and the authors ability to weave all of this into a captivating narrative in just 132 pages. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Get the book b>a hrefhttp://affiliates.abebooks.com/c/58313/77798/2029?uhttps%3A%2F%2Fwww.abebooks.com%2Fservlet%2FSearchResults%3Fan%3DAlice%2520Brennan%26bi%3D0%26bx%3Doff%26ds%3D30%26n%3D-1%26prc%3DUSD%26servlet%3DImpactRadiusAffiliateLinkEntry%26sortby%3D17%26tn%3DNurses%2520Dormitory target_blank>HERE/a>/b>./span>/p>div styleclear: both;>/div>/div>div classpost-footer>div classpost-footer-line post-footer-line-1>span classpost-author vcard>Posted byspan classfn itempropauthor itemscopeitemscope itemtypehttp://schema.org/Person>meta contenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11237105535257849119 itempropurl/>a classg-profile hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11237105535257849119 relauthor titleauthor profile>span itempropname>Paperback Warrior/span>/a>/span>/span>span classpost-timestamp>atmeta contenthttp://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2026/01/nurses-dormitory.html itempropurl/>a classtimestamp-link hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2026/01/nurses-dormitory.html relbookmark titlepermanent link>abbr classpublished itempropdatePublished title2026-01-02T06:00:00-05:00>6:00 AM/abbr>/a>/span>span classpost-comment-link>a classcomment-link hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2026/01/nurses-dormitory.html#comment-form onclick>No comments: /a>/span>span classpost-icons>span classitem-control blog-admin pid-432249977>a hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID333148591815278302&frompencil titleEdit Post>img alt classicon-action height18 srchttps://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif width18/>/a>/span>/span>div classpost-share-buttons goog-inline-block>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-email hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID333148591815278302&targetemail target_blank titleEmail This>span classshare-button-link-text>Email This/span>/a>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-blog hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID333148591815278302&targetblog onclickwindow.open(this.href, _blank, height270,width475);

Wells/a>, is best known for his celebrated classic b>i>War of the Worlds/i>/b>. The book was written between 1985 and 1897, and first published in b>i>Pearsons Magazine/i>/b> in the U.K. and b>i>Cosmopolitan/i>/b> in the U.S. The serial transitioned into a novel in 1898, and has been reprinted and offered in numerous formats since then. The seminal alien invasion novel has also been adapted into radio drama, films, comics, and television./span>p>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>The novel, presented in third-person by an unnamed narrator, begins in Southeast England as a cylinder launches from Mars and arrives on Horsell Common in Surrey. The narrator approaches the pit where the capsule is laying. He then gets a neighboring journalist to accompany him and the news spreads as more and more people arrive to gaze into the pit. Eventually, the cylinders top spins open and the aliens, possessing tentacles and a beak-like moth, emerge. Within a few minutes the aliens incinerate over 40 people with a devastating heat ray. The human slaughter commences and another capsule arrives./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>The books prose intensifies with more descriptions of battle. Wells focuses a great deal on catastrophe and destruction, elevated with the emergence of the tripods, three-legged Martian fighting machines that simply annihilate military forces. Entwined in the narrative is the narrators flee with his wife to the nearby town of Leatherhead, leaving her there with relatives. The narrator (for reasons unclear to me) returns to the Woking area to witness more carnage and then the mass exodus of people abandoning London./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>The books second half (labeled Book 2) is more atmospheric as the nature of the novel expands into a more despondent post-apocalyptic tone. London, referred to as “Dead London” in chapter eight, is described as a truly dismal place littered with corpses and alien scavengers. These scavengers seemingly squeeze the blood from humans as a source of nutrients. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>The more intimate details of the books second half features the narrator and a soldier trapped in a deserted house. The narrator is concerned with his wifes safety and irritated with the soldiers deteriorating mental state. Theres a lack of food and water that adds more misery to the situation. Both characters eventually leave the house, only to find themselves trapped in another dwelling as the alien scavengers continue to scrape the streets and houses with probing tentacles. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>The books climax comes as the narrator travels into lifeless London. As he walks through wreckage he begins to hear an eerie sound emanating from the aliens. I wont ruin the surprise here, but this is a hopeful sound that eventually leads to Earths liberation from the Martian invaders. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Reviewing literary classics is challenging. These works are over a century old, and my personal exposure to their legacy – various adaptations of the material, decades of critique, imitators, and overall cultural awareness – means I have been desensitized from the novels initial grandeur. I hadnt read the book before, but I had watched the movies, heard the radio drama, and was made aware of the books importance in science-fiction and as a catalyst for the genres sub-genre of alien invasion. One watch of something as flashy as b>i>Independence Day/i>/b> (1996) makes this novels action sequences a little underwhelming. But thats a personal problem reflective of my absorption of media, not any fault of the author or the work. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>With all that in consideration, I found b>i>War of the Worlds/i>/b> to be a good novel. I enjoyed the atmosphere, and the narrators survival horror perspective. The Martians appearance as tall blood sucking creatures with large eyes, tentacles, heat rays, and deadly gas played on my fears of being flesh-squeezed by a hideous alien invader. The description of England as a lifeless and decimated husk was described in the darkest way imaginable. In post-apocalyptic situations, humans can be the worst horror of all. Wells does an excellent job presenting human suffering and the mass lunacy of everyday people forced into extreme circumstances. Selfishness and greed leads to the greatest suffering of all./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>I think my only real complaint with the book was the inability to really hone in on the narrator. Often this character would tell me things happening in other parts of England or explaining in great detail his brothers exploits to survive the invasion, including a naval battle between a battering ram and an alien. I felt that I lost the intimacy of things directly occurring with the character, his personal predicament and the things affecting only him. It took me out of the moment and made the narration more epic in nature than personal. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Needless to say, b>i>War of the Worlds/i>/b> is an important book, and a praised work of science-fiction worthy of imitation, inspiration, and discussion. Read the book and appreciate the novels legacy and impact. You wont be disappointed./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Get the book b>a hrefhttps://amzn.to/48r1OeU target_blank>HERE/a>/b>./span>/p>div styleclear: both;>/div>/div>div classpost-footer>div classpost-footer-line post-footer-line-1>span classpost-author vcard>Posted byspan classfn itempropauthor itemscopeitemscope itemtypehttp://schema.org/Person>meta contenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11237105535257849119 itempropurl/>a classg-profile hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11237105535257849119 relauthor titleauthor profile>span itempropname>Paperback Warrior/span>/a>/span>/span>span classpost-timestamp>atmeta contenthttp://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2025/12/war-of-worlds.html itempropurl/>a classtimestamp-link hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2025/12/war-of-worlds.html relbookmark titlepermanent link>abbr classpublished itempropdatePublished title2025-12-31T06:00:00-05:00>6:00 AM/abbr>/a>/span>span classpost-comment-link>a classcomment-link hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2025/12/war-of-worlds.html#comment-form onclick>No comments: /a>/span>span classpost-icons>span classitem-control blog-admin pid-432249977>a hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID923396690224673408&frompencil titleEdit Post>img alt classicon-action height18 srchttps://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif width18/>/a>/span>/span>div classpost-share-buttons goog-inline-block>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-email hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID923396690224673408&targetemail target_blank titleEmail This>span classshare-button-link-text>Email This/span>/a>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-blog hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID923396690224673408&targetblog onclickwindow.open(this.href, _blank, height270,width475); return false; target_blank titleBlogThis!>span classshare-button-link-text>BlogThis!/span>/a>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-twitter hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID923396690224673408&targettwitter target_blank titleShare to X>span classshare-button-link-text>Share to X/span>/a>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-facebook hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID923396690224673408&targetfacebook onclickwindow.open(this.href, _blank, height430,width640); return false; target_blank titleShare to Facebook>span classshare-button-link-text>Share to Facebook/span>/a>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-pinterest hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID923396690224673408&targetpinterest target_blank titleShare to Pinterest>span classshare-button-link-text>Share to Pinterest/span>/a>/div>/div>div classpost-footer-line post-footer-line-2>span classpost-labels>Labels:a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/search/label/Science-Fiction reltag>Science-Fiction/a>/span>/div>div classpost-footer-line post-footer-line-3>span classpost-location>/span>/div>/div>/div>/div> /div>/div> div classdate-outer> h2 classdate-header>span>Monday, December 29, 2025/span>/h2> div classdate-posts> div classpost-outer>div classpost hentry uncustomized-post-template itempropblogPost itemscopeitemscope itemtypehttp://schema.org/BlogPosting>meta contenthttps://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHb6rclXOpsRNrQD3EyQBXuWZ6MCg6LJ2I9ydgpxQFRcrxs-4-VsXro1UKX2ZSjIhUXGwyae-AztYToPvcQGMnpRnsWkQjt1KmWZNjsx4Ps18zoIuOUHLcz8uOd7Ul8Rl4ihxquzhzLlqv32yta5Ku_fSCEIAf5AXiGP_Wp5CVSMIHlYSmSv-7husSjlE/w266-h400/No%20Exit.jpg itempropimage_url/>meta content5477956438422079368 itempropblogId/>meta content1807844547036838600 itemproppostId/>a name1807844547036838600>/a>h3 classpost-title entry-title itempropname>a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2025/12/no-exit.html>No Exit/a>/h3>div classpost-header>div classpost-header-line-1>/div>/div>div classpost-body entry-content idpost-body-1807844547036838600 itemproparticleBody>p>/p>div classseparator styleclear: both; text-align: center;>a hrefhttps://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHb6rclXOpsRNrQD3EyQBXuWZ6MCg6LJ2I9ydgpxQFRcrxs-4-VsXro1UKX2ZSjIhUXGwyae-AztYToPvcQGMnpRnsWkQjt1KmWZNjsx4Ps18zoIuOUHLcz8uOd7Ul8Rl4ihxquzhzLlqv32yta5Ku_fSCEIAf5AXiGP_Wp5CVSMIHlYSmSv-7husSjlE/s1500/No%20Exit.jpg styleclear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;>img border0 data-original-height1500 data-original-width997 height400 srchttps://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHb6rclXOpsRNrQD3EyQBXuWZ6MCg6LJ2I9ydgpxQFRcrxs-4-VsXro1UKX2ZSjIhUXGwyae-AztYToPvcQGMnpRnsWkQjt1KmWZNjsx4Ps18zoIuOUHLcz8uOd7Ul8Rl4ihxquzhzLlqv32yta5Ku_fSCEIAf5AXiGP_Wp5CVSMIHlYSmSv-7husSjlE/w266-h400/No%20Exit.jpg width266 />/a>/div>span stylefont-size: large;>Taylor Adams is an American thriller writer from Washington state who built his reputation on fast-paced, high-concept suspense novels that read like crackling paperback nail-biters.

Along with information about the writer, the online library offers a robust selection of a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/search/label/Gardner%20F.%20Fox?m0 target_blank>Foxs/a> novels and pulp stories in ebook and audiobook formats. You can obtain affordable digital copies of sexy a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/search/label/Spy?m0 target_blank>spy/a> series titles like b>i>Cherry Delight/i>/b> and b>i>Lady from L.U.S.T./i>/b> or sword-wielding tales starring b>i>Kothar/i>/b> or b>i>Kyrik/i>/b>. Thankfully, the library also includes numerous Fox stand-alone novels that he wrote under pseudonyms. One of those, b>i>Lady Wrestler/i>/b>, was published by Midwood (F193) in 1962 under Foxs pseudonym of James Harvey. Vintage copies of the paperback net over $200, but I was able to purchase the book for two bucks. /span>p>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>The novel opens with Bella Woods completing a short, ill-fated run of a Broadway performance. The experience left her financially devastated, emotionally depleted, and her body abused by the shows perverted producer. In bed with the sleazy promoter, Bella comes to the realization she needs a change and new life goals. An interview with a male model and entrepreneur opens up a world of possibilities: Pro-Wrestling. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Brick hires Bella to join his budding stable of female wrestlers. With these eight ladies, Brick hopes to secure a few local bookings, tap into the market share of male pro-wrestling, and secure a television deal. Its all on the up and up, and Bella rightfully trusts Brick and his tunnel vision./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Bella arrives at Bricks family farm house and meets the other wrestlers. There are women there who use gimmicks like an obese jungle native, a tatted carnival oddity, a royal Queen, a revolting slave, etc. Needless to say, it is a colorful house filled with diversity and different perspectives. Bellas conflict is with a rival ex-Broadway star named Charlotte, that is sleeping with Brick. Her other conflict is with Bricks sister, a domineering lesbian named Cleo, who rapes Bella during her first night at the house./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Through b>i>Lady Wrestler/i>/b>s narrative, readers enjoy the rags-to-riches rise of these eight women from bingo halls to a local television program. Fox weaves a multitude of minor plot points that include Bricks financial struggles, Bellas romantic flings with Brick, Cleos uprising, and the lifestyles of a few minor characters both in and out of the ring. The most satisfying plot point is a lawsuit from the television producers over Bellas indecent exposure on their programming. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>After watching the Netflix show b>i>GLOW/i>/b>, which fictionally documents the rise and fall of the womens Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling organization in the 1980s, I found so many interesting comparisons to this 1962 paperback. The characters, the TV deal, the promoter, the lifestyles – all of this is remarkably told by Fox nearly two decades before b>i>G.L.O.W./i>/b> first aired on television in 1986. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>If you enjoy pro-wrestling, then you will really enjoy b>i>Lady Wrestler/i>/b>. The gimmicks and wrestling personalities were thoroughly enjoyable, and I liked Bellas perspective of being new to the industry. However, Fox was just a serviceable writer, never great but never dull. His writing leaves something to be desired, but nonetheless has enough variance and texture to bring these characters to life, albeit a little wonky on dialogue. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>For $1.99 you cant go wrong.

The book was loosely adapted into a comedic a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/search/label/Spy target_blank>spy/a> film in 1967 with star Dean Martin. As the old saying goes, the books are always better than the movies. b>i>The Ambushers/i>/b> is proof positive./span>p>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>The book begins with Helm in a place he describes vaguely as “lets call it Costa Verde”, an unknown banana country in South America. His mission is to carry a heavy sniper rifle through the jungle, meet up with a resistance fighter named Jimenez, and help assassinate the countrys newest political rival. After snubbing a revolution, Helms job is through, and he can head back to Washington. But like most Helm novels, things dont go quite according to plan. During the successful assassination, Helm finds two surprises. First, a nuclear warhead that was probably smuggled from the Russians. Second, a former Nazi senior leader whom Helm recognizes from a prior mission. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>In Washington, Helm receives a backhanded compliment from his direct Mac – praise for succeeding on the assignment. But Macs associates scold Helm for ignoring two international threats during the mission. Defensively, cool-headed Helm dismisses their Monday morning quarterbacking and expresses interest in his next mission./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>The fallout from the assassination is now spreading into southern New Mexico. In a quiet suburb, the former Nazi leader that Helm identified is now setting up shop for a new movement. Helms job is to team with a reserved, previously traumatized agent named Sheila to expose the leader and quell this new Nazi uprising. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Hamiltons prose is a smooth telling of espionage in a conversational tone. Both Helm and Sheila work well together, creating a cohesive fighting pair that both complement each others scarred pasts. When the two find themselves at odds with a Russian spy (lovely as ever) they must jeopardize the mission to stop a much larger threat. Theres plenty of mountainous terrain, gunfire, fisticuffs, and tepid lovemaking, but the real main event is always Helms thoughts. In a generous first-person perspective, Helm talks to the reader in a way that is just uniquely captivating. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>I paired my reading of Hamiltons narrative with listening to Stefan Rudnickis gripping audio narration. Either way, your experience with b>i>The Ambushers/i>/b> will be thrilling. Highly recommended.

Gifunes/a> writing and have covered his books here on the blog and on the a hrefhttps://youtu.be/iSkMFfO0mMg target_blank>YT channel/a>. Earlier this year, I had the opportunity to exclusively reveal his newest books cover, a glorious piece by the talented Zach McCain, an internationally published artist who also created visually striking artwork for Gifunes 2022 horror novella b>i>a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2025/06/savages.html?m0 target_blank>Savages/a>/i>/b> (Cemetery Dance). Since seeing the cover for b>i>Pack Animals/i>/b> (Macabre Ink), Ive been anxiously counting the days until the books release. Finally, the hunt is over. Or is it?/span>p>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Thankfully, Gifunes writing style - an effective combination of visceral violence and horrifying psychosis - takes on one of my favorite aspects of horror. Like b>i>Savages/i>/b>, the early description for b>i>Pack Animals/i>/b> was a homage to the survival, late-night horror films of the 1970s and 1980s. Films like b>i>The Pack/i>/b>, b>i>Day of the Animals/i>/b>, b>i>The Howling/i>/b>, and b>i>Grizzly/i>/b> all sprang into my mind. This was the VHS market I grew up in in the 1980s and early 1990s, and Im always searching for that same nostalgia in pop culture./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>b>i>Pack Animals/i>/b> begins with an unknown woman arriving at a medical facility. Inside, she learns that her husband, or boyfriend, has experienced a significant trauma and now remains in a state of mental shock as his body recovers from exhaustive injuries. Inside his room, theres this heavy vacuum that seemingly sucks the hope from the room. The man is despondent and silent as he fixates on something far beyond the hospital, far beyond anything the two of them can understand./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>As the books narrative unfolds, Gifune then takes readers back to the start to explain the happenings and surroundings that have crushed the mans body and spirit. The author introduces a group of thirty-something male friends starting with Truck. He has experienced infidelity, a divorce, and a type of midlife crisis reassembling his life. He moves to an off-the-grid place nestled deep in the rural mountains of New Hampshire. Yet his peace and tranquility are shattered routinely with night visitors that hover in the treeline. Trucks defense is a shotgun, a handgun, and lots of ammunition, which sends up red flags for the tiny community. They dont trust outsiders and send one of their own to warn Truck to keep the peace. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Later, Trucks assemblage of friends arrives to spend a week with him in his newfound mountain oasis. On their drive to Trucks house, they see an old woman in a bloody nightgown walking through the forest. Later, at Trucks house, they discover theres no phone signal. This isolation becomes alarming when they find Trucks behavior unsettling. He warns the group to leave before dark, before the visitors arrive. When they refuse, Truck provides them with details on something, or someone, that he chained up in his shed. Is Truck insane, or does the darkness bring a host of Hell?/span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Im careful with reviewing Gifunes work because it is subjective. Many of his novellas and full-length novels play havoc with your imagination. Many of the horrors in the authors work present themselves differently depending on the reader. However, theres no denying that b>i>Pack Animals/i>/b> is a monster story. The books cover, title, and synopsis suggest a werewolvish type of reading experience, and I believe the lead into the books release promises survival horror. But it still possesses many of the ingredients that make Gifunes writing so good. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Trucks move to the country reminds me of the events leading to Lance Boyces move to snowy Maine in the excellent b>i>a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2025/10/lords-of-twilight.html?m0 target_blank>Lords of Twilight/a>/i>/b>, one of Gifnes best. The disturbing arrival of the town sheriff called to mind the arrival of Bob in Gifunes equally entertaining b>i>a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2025/10/the-rain-dancers.html?m0 target_blank>The Rain Dancers/a>/i>/b>. The idea of average individuals stranded and cold is a concept that Gifune often uses, most effectively in b>i>Midnight Solitaire/i>/b>. However, as much as Gifune uses his old tricks to scare us, it isnt simply a recycle. With Pack Animals, Gifune takes all of these elements and thrusts them into an action-oriented, fast-paced survival yarn that is bone-jarring horror, but equally a white-knuckled thriller. It is compared to Gifunes b>i>Savages/i>/b>, which is a fair comparison, but also something like b>i>a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2024/10/oasis-of-damned.html?m0 target_blank>Oasis of the Damned/a>/i>/b>. These stories and concepts work well because they pit vulnerable, everyday people into harrowing fight-or-flight situations that push the boundaries of mental awareness and physical exhaustion. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>I could write for days on Greg Gifunes work and how much of an impact hes made not only as an author, but also as an editor. It is novels like b>i>Pack Animals/i>/b> that remind me just how great a storyteller he is. If you are searching for an enjoyable action-oriented monster novel, pack your bags for b>i>Pack Animals/i>/b>. Its a trip worth taking./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Get the book b>a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2025/10/lords-of-twilight.html?m0 target_blank>HERE/a>/b>./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>u>Random Notes/u> – I jotted down a few things as I was reading the book that didnt necessarily fit the review. The sheriffs name of Leland made me think of the nefarious shopkeeper and rival of Sheriff Pangborn, Leland Gaunt, the star of Stephen Kings b>i>Needful Things/i>/b>. Theres a character mentioned at the end of Pack Animals named Maynard. This seems like a nod to Herman Rauchers classic horror paperback b>i>Maynards House/i>/b>. It would be remiss of me not to say that Michael McBrides own monster novel b>i>Snowblind/i>/b> came to mind as well. Both b>i>Pack Animals/i>/b> and b>i>Snowblind/i>/b> should now be the high-water mark of the survival horror genre. /span>/p>div styleclear: both;>/div>/div>div classpost-footer>div classpost-footer-line post-footer-line-1>span classpost-author vcard>Posted byspan classfn itempropauthor itemscopeitemscope itemtypehttp://schema.org/Person>meta contenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11237105535257849119 itempropurl/>a classg-profile hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11237105535257849119 relauthor titleauthor profile>span itempropname>Paperback Warrior/span>/a>/span>/span>span classpost-timestamp>atmeta contenthttp://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2025/12/pack-animals.html itempropurl/>a classtimestamp-link hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2025/12/pack-animals.html relbookmark titlepermanent link>abbr classpublished itempropdatePublished title2025-12-23T06:00:00-05:00>6:00 AM/abbr>/a>/span>span classpost-comment-link>a classcomment-link hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2025/12/pack-animals.html#comment-form onclick>No comments: /a>/span>span classpost-icons>span classitem-control blog-admin pid-432249977>a hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID1811684958505502653&frompencil titleEdit Post>img alt classicon-action height18 srchttps://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif width18/>/a>/span>/span>div classpost-share-buttons goog-inline-block>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-email hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID1811684958505502653&targetemail target_blank titleEmail This>span classshare-button-link-text>Email This/span>/a>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-blog hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID1811684958505502653&targetblog onclickwindow.open(this.href, _blank, height270,width475);

She was a founding member of the Society of Women Geographers and was honored with a Womens National Book Award. Im always searching for an entertaining prison-themed adventure, so I decided to read her novel b>i>Condemned to Devils Island/i>/b>, which was published as a hardcover in 1928 and adapted into a film in 1929./span>p>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Niles authored the book after interviewing an unnamed French prisoner, named “Michael” in the book, that was serving a sentence at the notorious Bagne de Cayenne, referred to as “Devils Island”, in French Guiana. In flashback scenes, readers learn of Michaels servitude to a Russian Prince and his descent into criminality, leading to a temporary prison sentence in France before being sentenced to seven years of hard labor on the island. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>When the book begins, Michael is jovial about the trip, looking forward to the passage by boat to the island and seeing a new land full of possibilities. He makes friends with another inmate named Felix and the two converse about their pasts and the opportunities that lie ahead on this new island of imprisonment. Despite the horrific aura of Devils Island, Michael is in a blissful state of denial. He never seems to fully grip his real undertaking here./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>As the book expands into the cumbersome chores of prison life, Michael becomes a type of prison courier that works in the village. At night hes behind bars in the less restrictive dormitory portion of the facility, and by day he socializes and gathers gossip that he later trades for various goods in the prison. Eventually Michael develops a relationship with a wardens wife in town and makes a few escape attempts to no avail./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>b>i>Condemned to Devils Island/i>/b> isnt a mens action-adventure prison break novel. Instead, this is simply a character study in the form of a tepid melodrama about Michaels hopes and desires behind prison walls. In fairness, I barely finished the book and found myself skipping entire sections of pointless deliberation between characters over tedious things. This book was a sluggish bore and I cant recommend it to anyone. If you want a more inspiring prison-break adventure try Henri Charrieres b>i>Papillon/i>/b> (1969), Peter McCurtins b>i>a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2018/11/escape-from-devils-island.html target_blank>Escape from Devils Island/a>/i>/b> (1971), or Rene Belbenoits b>i>Dry Guillotine/i>/b> (1938)./span>/p>div styleclear: both;>/div>/div>div classpost-footer>div classpost-footer-line post-footer-line-1>span classpost-author vcard>Posted byspan classfn itempropauthor itemscopeitemscope itemtypehttp://schema.org/Person>meta contenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11237105535257849119 itempropurl/>a classg-profile hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11237105535257849119 relauthor titleauthor profile>span itempropname>Paperback Warrior/span>/a>/span>/span>span classpost-timestamp>atmeta contenthttp://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2025/12/condemned-to-devils-island.html itempropurl/>a classtimestamp-link hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2025/12/condemned-to-devils-island.html relbookmark titlepermanent link>abbr classpublished itempropdatePublished title2025-12-22T06:00:00-05:00>6:00 AM/abbr>/a>/span>span classpost-comment-link>a classcomment-link hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2025/12/condemned-to-devils-island.html#comment-form onclick>No comments: /a>/span>span classpost-icons>span classitem-control blog-admin pid-432249977>a hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID7225726395048028426&frompencil titleEdit Post>img alt classicon-action height18 srchttps://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif width18/>/a>/span>/span>div classpost-share-buttons goog-inline-block>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-email hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID7225726395048028426&targetemail target_blank titleEmail This>span classshare-button-link-text>Email This/span>/a>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-blog hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID7225726395048028426&targetblog onclickwindow.open(this.href, _blank, height270,width475);

But her peaceful tranquility is about to become shattered./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Readers are periodically removed from Roses life and thrust into various rooms with a masked killer. This masked killer commits acts of ruthless violence on the homes residents, but stages each murder to appear self-inflicted or an accident. A man is thrown from a fire tower after a lifetime of searching for alien life in the skies (accident?), a man cuts his wrist in the bathtub after his lover is killed (suicide?), another man drowns in the local pond (accident?). As the body count rises, Rose is forced into action as the obligatory amateur detective. While the real detective, a nice but useless character named Hastings, spins his wheels searching for answers, Rose is on the offensive tracking down clues to learn the identity of the killer and his/her motive./span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>b>i>The Autumn Springs Retirement Home Massacre/i>/b> could have easily been authored by an early 20th century mystery writer like a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2025/02/the-sister-of-cain.html target_blank>Mary Collins/a>, a hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2024/07/disturbance-on-berry-hill.html target_blank>Elizabeth Fenwick/a>, or Charlotte Armstrong. Sure, the novel works just as good as a b>i>Scream /i>/b>slasher, but I found the narrative brimming over with a thick mystery, a claustrophobic tightening of suspects, and an admirable amateur detective Hellbent on destroying her opponent. But, like a formulaic 80s slasher, plausibility is thrown away. How the killer can move effortlessly around so many people – security guards, doctors, nurses, residents - while creating this much chaos is unresolved. While the killers identity makes it seem possible, one must still suspend disbelief. I nabbed the killer in the opening act. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Aside from the horror and mystery aspect, I felt like Fracassis telling of these seniors and their lifestyles was very touching. Rose is an endearing character, one of the best Ive come across in ages. Her intimacy struggles with Miller, her familial relationship with her daughter, and her history with an ex-husband are all very real and very meaningful. Roses life story, revealed in the books final act, proves shes a viable fighter worthy of being deemed “the final girl”. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>b>i>The Autumn Springs Retirement Home Massacre/i>/b> is an exhilarating whodunit that possesses a uniqueness – the murder of an aging population already braced for death. This peek into the world of our elders was a surreal glimpse at mortality. No one is getting out of this life alive. /span>/p>p>span stylefont-size: large;>Get the book b>a hrefhttps://amzn.to/3Mc6QTM target_blank>HERE/a>/b>./span>/p>div styleclear: both;>/div>/div>div classpost-footer>div classpost-footer-line post-footer-line-1>span classpost-author vcard>Posted byspan classfn itempropauthor itemscopeitemscope itemtypehttp://schema.org/Person>meta contenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11237105535257849119 itempropurl/>a classg-profile hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11237105535257849119 relauthor titleauthor profile>span itempropname>Paperback Warrior/span>/a>/span>/span>span classpost-timestamp>atmeta contenthttp://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2025/12/the-autumn-springs-retirement-home.html itempropurl/>a classtimestamp-link hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2025/12/the-autumn-springs-retirement-home.html relbookmark titlepermanent link>abbr classpublished itempropdatePublished title2025-12-12T06:00:00-05:00>6:00 AM/abbr>/a>/span>span classpost-comment-link>a classcomment-link hrefhttps://www.paperbackwarrior.com/2025/12/the-autumn-springs-retirement-home.html#comment-form onclick>No comments: /a>/span>span classpost-icons>span classitem-control blog-admin pid-432249977>a hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID2253095005280306108&frompencil titleEdit Post>img alt classicon-action height18 srchttps://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif width18/>/a>/span>/span>div classpost-share-buttons goog-inline-block>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-email hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID2253095005280306108&targetemail target_blank titleEmail This>span classshare-button-link-text>Email This/span>/a>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-blog hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID5477956438422079368&postID2253095005280306108&targetblog onclickwindow.open(this.href, _blank, height270,width475);
