My wife and I finished watching the final season of THE SHIELD on the weekend, and I’m still reeling. Never has a TV programme possessed me so completely. I was utterly invested in the fate of these characters, and the final 3 episodes especially were emotionally draining and beautifully crafted. I’ll post something more detailed about it here soon … but siffice to say, I think it’s the best TV ever.
Off to London tomorrow for a couple of days with my wife, then upon my return it’s back to work doing revisions on CALLS OF THE WILD (The Secret Journeys of Jack London – Book One) for Harper in the USA … a collaboration with the very excellent Christopher Golden.
Coming soon from Harper Collins in the USA …
This book series has been optioned for screen by Fox2000, and Chris and I have been hired to write the screenplay to Fox. (UPDATE: script delivered)
The series has also sold in Germany and France.
And the blurbs are coming in:
“A great old-school adventure novel and the best use of the Wendigo legend I’ve ever read.” – Mike Mignola, creator of Hellboy
“A masterful mix of gold, cold, supernatural creatures, and dread magic makes this a great action adventure story.” – Garth Nix, author of the Abhorsen Trilogy
