Wilson has written another fun book to read with just enough Easter eggs to other stories to keep his fans happy. The novel was well-paced and the characters were easy to get to know.

I was not a fan of this title, the story just didn’t connect to me personally. May be a better fit for another writer.

F. Paul Wilson's Double Threat introduces 26-year-old con artist Stanka Daley as she flees scammed marks to hide in a desert cave. There, something drops and attaches to her head - she acquires a talkative symbiont, Pard.

In Nespodee Springs, they are up against a cult that worships previous Earth Visitors and work towards their return. The cult leader will do anything to stop the Daley/Pard Duad from getting in the way.

F. Paul Wilson's latest novel is a blend of science fiction and thriller, which means it is right up my alley! Double Threat is not a novel to skip!

26-year-old Daley is concerned. Very concerned. In fact, she might just be losing her grasp on reality. She's hearing voices, or more accurately: one voice. This voice keeps telling her that they're bonded and will share a body from now on.

Naturally, Daley isn't reacting too well to the news. Yet when scans don't detect anything, Daley begins to wonder if maybe this being is telling her the truth. If so, it means that they can do wonderful things together.

Symbionts, cults, and prophecies? Sign me up! Double Threat is a novel that has a whole lot going on, and it makes for an exciting read. Unfortunately, it is a bit of a struggle to describe without the risk of spoiling some of the best parts.

So this time around, I'm going to go with less is more. Double Threat is thrilling, fun, and chaotic in all the best ways. Daley's character is bright is interesting, as is her newly found symbiont, which is more or less exactly what you might be imagining.

I really enjoyed this varied take on the subject and certainly wouldn't mind reading more about their adventures in the future!

Thanks to Forge Books and #NetGalley for making this book available for review. All opinions expressed are my own.

F. Paul Wilson’s Double Threat is quirky and weird and yet entertainingly so. There’s an old Indigenous woman with a Harley-Davidson and a sidecar who gives guidance with sassy sharpness. There’s a smitten potential suitor whose father wants Daley “out of the way.” There’s a disfigured genius who slinks around the town at night, kinda like their very own solo neighborhood watch. There’s a cult who are looking for the stars to align for some sort of big event – and Daley’s apparently their nemesis. (Not that she knows it, of course.) And there’s a smarty-pants sidekick who lives in Daley’s head. If you like snarky dialogue, Pard provides lots of it.

Double Threat was interesting, but it took me more than a few chapters to get into it. I’ve never read F. Paul Wilson though I’ve heard of his Repairman Jack series, so I thought I’d give Double Threat a try. If you like quirky reads with a charming main character who doesn’t seem to mind getting in over her head, then give this a try.

drey’s rating: Pick it up!

Daley and her crazy adventure fit right into the Secret History of The World. This girl has a way of getting herself into trouble everywhere she goes.
I love Pard he is a trip.

(“Not going to happen, Stanka, so I’m afraid you’ll have to get used to me. You’ve got yourself a roommate. From now on, you and I will be sharing your body.”)

There is a crazy cult that is up to no good out to get rid of her. Mr Wilson always comes up with some out of this world scenarios that keep me coming back for more every time.
This is the first book in a duet. If you love the Repairman Jack books you’ll love this one as well..

This was the first book I've ever read by F. Paul Wilson. I've been familiar with him for years but never felt ready to fully commit. I'm happy to say that I did finally commit and I enjoyed it. This book reminded me of the the relationship between Venom and Eddie Brock. More so in the movie then in the comic. Picture kinda Venom versus a kinda redneck cult and you'll get an idea of the plot. More to come closer to release date. 4 out of 5 Stars.

Double Threat by F. Paul Wilson is a superb read which will keep you engrossed and turning pages at a rapid rate until the very last one.
