F. PAUL WILSON is the award-winning, best-selling author of fifty-plus books and nearly one hundred short stories spanning science fiction, horror, adventure, medical, and virtually everything in between. His novels regularly appear on the New York Times best sellers lists. The Tomb received the Porgie Award from the West Coast Review of Books. Wheels Within Wheels won the Prometheus Award. His novella, Aftershock, won a Bram Stoker Award. He was voted Grand Master by the World Horror Convention and received the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Horror Writers of America. Paul also received the prestigious San Diego Comi-Con Inkpot Award. In 1983, Paramount rendered his novel The Keep into a visually striking but (as Paul says) “otherwise incomprehensible movie.” Hollywood continues to toy with the idea of turning Repairman Jack into a franchise character. Over nine million copies of Paul’s books are in print and his work has been translated into twenty-four languages. Paul resides at the Jersey Shore and more information on him can be found at repairmanjack.com.
