Again, you’ll understand eventually…

Working with Vaughn Bodé

February 26, 2017

I don’t know exactly what project this book (originally from 1974) is referring to but that paragraph is a quote from Dean. It may be referring to an unreleased screenplay based on Bodé’s The Amorous Adventures of Puck, of which previously I don’t believe I’ve mentioned on this blog.

The Whispering Room

February 26, 2017

From the end of The Silent Corner ARC. This is all I’m going to share. I’ve found no release date at this point.

Please turn the page
for a special advance preview of
the next Jane Hawk novel from
#1 New York Times bestselling author
DEAN KOONTZ
THE WHISPERING ROOM

1

Cora Gundersun walked through seething fire without being burned, nor did her white dress burst into flames. She was not afraid, but instead exhilarated, and the many admiring people witnessing this spectacle gaped in amazement, their expressions of astonishment flickering with reflections of the flames. They called out to her not in alarm, but in wonder, with a note of veneration in their voices, so that Cora felt equally thrilled and humbled that she had been made invulnerable.

The Silent Corner ARCs

February 24, 2017

In case you haven’t noticed ARCs for The Silent Corner are starting to appear both in print (eBay) and electronically. Just got my eARC and will be starting it momentarily. Here’s one bit I will tease you with:

The Silent Corner: Those who are truly off the grid and cannot be tracked by any technology, yet are able to move about freely and use the Internet, are said to be in the silent corner.

Given my technology background my hopes are suddenly much higher than they were before. Echos of Dark Rivers of the Heart anyone?

My latest Vaughn Bodē / Dean Koontz find…

The Vaughn Bodē Index

February 12, 2017

Here’s another one that’s been on my want list for a while. Not that I couldn’t find a copy, just that most were selling for way more than I was willing to pay. Well, I’ve been going through it and let’s just say that I wish I’d not waited so long and that there are one or two previously unknown to me items now on the way to my collection. More details to follow.

Demon Seed on Blu-ray

February 12, 2017

According to blu-ray.com Demon Seed will finally be release on Blu-ray in “early 2017.” Sadly, the trailer seems to be the only content beyond the film. More details to follow as they become available. (Thanks to Noah for the heads up.)

Finally pick up one of the 600 copies of this for a reasonable price.:

Here’s why.

The Whispering Room

February 10, 2017

Did you see this on Dean’s blog post about The Silent Corner?

I had so much fun with Jane that I knew at the end of THE SILENT CORNER that I had only begun to peel the layers of this fascinating character. I have now finished the second book with her, THE WHISPERING ROOM, and I had even more fun with this one. What Jane has to face this time is beyond daunting, beyond just terrifying, and had me anxiety breathing through the last half of the book. Elsa, our dog, had to calm me by giving me belly rubs, a rather embarrassing role reversal.

There’s no Amazon listing or any other I can find but I’ll be sure to post more as info is released.

Author Dean Koontz Signs With Brillstein, Inkwell

January 9, 2017

Author Dean Koontz has signed with New York-based lit boutique Inkwell Management in all areas, and with Brillstein Entertainment Partners for film and television. Koontz, who has sold over 500 million books in 38 languages, has been without agency representation for several years, so look for him to become more active in having his thriller novels adapted. He had been and continues to be lawyered by Richard Heller at Frankfurt Kurnit Klein & Selz. Inkwell’s Richard Pine and Kim Witherspoon, and Brillstein’s Jon Liebman and Missy Malkin are his new reps.
