MY MOST CHERISHED BOOK,
By A Customer
This review is from: Black Wind (Hc) (Hardcover)
I have read Black Wind twice over the years and it was more powerful the second time. The characterizations are wonderfully done and blend well in the historical setting with the historical characters. The author creates a consuming drama that not only addresses many wartime issues but reels you in to a brilliantly masterminded sci-fi world that is almost believable.

One of my all-time favorite books ever,
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Black Wind (Hc) (Hardcover)
I read this book many years ago, it was passed around between family members. To this day, I have not read a book that has so powerfully depicted the tumultuous events involving Americans and Japanese during World War II. In fact, I was so dismayed that the book was out of print! This beautifully written historical epic is riveting, the kind that makes you cry and gets you all choked up, and the characters are admirable and true to life. F. Paul Wilson brilliantly weaves in historical details, native superstition and cultural differences around an unforgettable love triangle, and gives some very lasting (not to mention haunting) images of the war. Steven Spielberg should have made a movie out of it!

Black Wind,
By Valerie Mercer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Black Wind (Hc) (Hardcover)
Fantastic! I want to give it 5++ stars! F. Paul Wilson has truly created a novel to capture the intricate dynamics of loyalty between friends, between lovers, between brothers, between family and child, between love and hate...inter-twined without gaps, fast moving...a tightly woven tale that held me spell-bound, anxious to keep on reading well late into the night. Excellent work, sir...

Best F. Paul Wilson novel!,
By J. Nicklin "kayenine" - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Black Wind (Paperback)
Arguably the best yet from F. Paul Wilson including the entire Repairman Jack series. Don't get me wrong; I love Jack but he's getting a little long in the tooth and I think F. needs to move along and get back to his roots as we see in Black Wind. Wonderful story.
