Home Randall Silvis has written Mysticus Summary sent to us by Brenda Lynn : "It is 1949, when a glance from a starlet named Marilyn Monroe can and does change men's lives.... And is is 2001, when the pouty smile of a teenage prostitute on Sunset Boulevard throws history into a tailspin.... And it is 2018, when one drop of an illegal perfume called Moon Over Eros unleashes a pandemonium that threatens to destroy the world. It is MYSTICUS, a masterpiece of invention that weaves together three storylines into one stunning novel about the consequences of love, sex, and power. At the heart of this novel is the story of Ronald Shepard, whom we first meet as a normal 9-year-old boy in 1949. But that summer, after a brief meeting with the starlet Marilyn Monroe, Ronald's life is forever changed, and by the novel's end, in 2018, that very normal little boy has become a very peculiar old man." Reviews : "Randall Silvis is a masterful storyteller." The NY Times Book Review. "MYSTICUS is that rarest of rare books." Lee K. Abbott. "It's beautiful." Lewis Nordan.

FEATURED AUTHOR RANDALL SILVIS Double Dragon E-Books About the Author Randall Silvis is an award winning creative writer, novelist, playwright and screen writer. He has numerous books in print including Mysticus Dead Man Falling and The Luckiest Man Alive and quite a selection of articles for magazines, including Destination Discovery , the magazine of the discovery channel. About the Book: Mysticus In 1949 Ronald Shepard, the son of servants to a millionaire playboy living on a private island off the coast of South Carolina, meets Marilyn Monroe. This begins the child's movement from innocence to the eventual experience that results in an obsession with sex, power, greed and ambition that shapes the rest of his life. In 2001 seventeen-year-old Cassandra DeRoy has been employed in the world's oldest profession for three years. A dead ringer for Marilyn Monroe, Cassie stands at a street corner one night when Ronald spots her. Remembering his encounter with Marilyn so many years ago, Ronald picks her up and takes her home. He proves to be the gentlest man she'd ever met. In 2018 sixteen-year-old Ginger Todd faces the ugliest elements of her society. Disgusted with her past, Ginger sees no hope of improvement for her future. Adopted to people who don't understand her, Ginger finds herself pregnant and seeking answers to her identity in the journals of her alcoholic mother. For a brief moment, she realizes she had actually been valued, that her existence had not always been an inconvenience and an annoyance.

65. Ernest DeWalt Ernest DeWalt Created by randall silvis. The sun also rises on thePI novel, it seems. In this very Hemingwayesque, very literate http://www.thrillingdetective.com/dewalt.html

Ernest DeWalt Created by Randall Silvis The sun also rises on the P.I. novel, it seems. In this very Hemingwayesque, very literate, very well-received 1993 novel by Randall Silvis, ERNEST DeWALT is a tough, hard-drinking, hard-living, big city private dick until three .38 slugs take him out of the game, destroying his kidneys, his liver and, well, his dick. During his long, slow recovery, he "pulled a Wambaugh", writing a novel about his former profession. Written more as an act of catharthis than as literature, the book became wildly successful, much to Ernest's embarrassment. But it brought him to the attention of academia. So now he's a professor in a university out in the sticks, where he tries to deal with being a "wholly useless and expendable scholar" and a "hollowed ot human being", not to mention his attempts to rise above his own self-pity. Powerful stuff. In 1996, actor Tom Berenger co-produced and starred in a filmed version of the novel, with a screenplay by Randall Silvis. Some very fine performances, particularly by Berenger, and strong, emotional scenes are marred by an ill-conceived attempt to give life to Ernest's interior monologues and bouts with temptation by having a women appear, whom only Ernest can see and talk to. If you can get past this piece of hokum, it's a quietly powerful film that will stay with you. If you can't get over it, it just looks silly and corny. What were they thinking?

Baker, Kevin Paradise Alley At the height of the Civil War, what begins with strong words and a few broken bottles will, over the course of five days, escalate into the worst urban conflagration in American history. Hundreds of thousands of poor Irish immigrants smolder with resentment against a war and a president that have cost them so many of their young men. When word spreads throughout New York's immigrant wards that a military draft is about to be implemented a draft from which any rich man's son with $300 can buy an exemption trouble begins to spill into the streets.

On a cold March night New York Times crime reporter John Schuyler Moore is summoned to the East River by a former Harvard classmate Dr. Laszio Kreizler, a psychologist or "alienist." On the unfinished Williamsburg bridge, they view the mutilated body of a boy, a prostitute from one of Manhattan's infamous brothels.

On Night's Shore by Randall Silvis ISBN 0-312-26201-9 Summer 2001 New York Times Book Review must-read mystery About the Author Read an Excerpt Description It is the summer of 1840for some in New York City a season of prosperity; for others, another season of desperation. This is the milieu of On Night's Shore , an amazing literary thriller from an author hailed by the New York Times Book Review as "a masterful storyteller." Randall Silvis's On Night's Shore opens with one of the most spellbinding scenes in contemporary writing. A girl tosses her baby from a warehouse window, then follows the infant into the Hudson River far below. The only witness to this desperate act is a ten-year-old street arab named Augie Dubbins, a boy who survives by the motto, "In calamity, opportunity." Augie does what he can to make a few pennies from the girl's tragedy. In doing so he encounters another of the desperate ones, a struggling young journalist named Edgar Allan Poe, a poet and critic and newspaper hack whose penchant for saying the wrong thing at the wrong time has not only stymied his advancement as a writer but has earned him more than a few enemies.
