Title: Paperback Writer Author: Stephen Bly Publisher: Broadman & Holman ISBN: 0-805-42618-3 Genre: Inspirational/General/Contemporary/Fiction
Paul James Watson, author of The Distracted Detective series, knows his work won't ever hit the best seller list, but he doggedly pushes himself to complete five books each year. Over the years his life has become so routine, that everything, including his Christian walk, is blasé and on cruise-control.
However, this time he has buried himself in the fictional world of his hero, Tobias McKenna, once too often. After spending twelve days locked in a motel room finishing his latest book, the line between reality and imagination have blurred. Emotionally exhausted, Paul climbs behind the steering wheel of his truck for the long drive home. He's not alone, though, Toby's come along for the ride... or has he?
When Paul stops to help a woman and child in distress, he becomes entangled in espionage, staying just steps ahead of a serial bomber. Or does he? Just when you think you’ve figured things out, Bly flips the plot on its ear and leaves you scratching your head.
Paperback Writer takes readers into the intricate roller coaster workings of a writer’s mind and leaves them dazed and wanting more. Stephen Bly proves himself again as a master word-weaver. Hats off to you, Cowboy! |
