Cover to Cover #90: John Shirley / Bill Pottle

November 30, 2003 by Michael R. Mennenga

Crawlers by John ShirleyJohn Shirley
John joins us to speak about his new book, Crawlers. Call it a fusion of sci-fi and horror, as most of John’s work crosses generas and often defines a few. He’s dealing with the teen agers in a small town who have discovered their adults are being taken over by… something. I don’t want to say much more for fear of giving away the plot. But if you like cyberpunk tossed in with your sci-fi, I’d recommend Crawlers!

Bill Pottle
For hist first novel, Bill chose the traditional fantasy line of a quest. You probably could have figured that out for yourself, as the title of the book is DreamQuest. One of the most amazing things about this book: Bill has been writing it for over sixteen years!
