SIX BOOK CLUB-WORTHY TITLES

THE HOUSE AT THE END OF THE WORLD

By Dean Koontz

Soon no one on Earth will have a place to hide…

THE BOOK

From Dean Koontz — one of our generation’s master storytellers — comes the next modern classic that will have dystopian lovers clawing for a copy!

The New York Times has called his writing “psychologically complex, masterly and satisfying.” The New Orleans Times-Picayune said Koontz is “at times lyrical without ever being naive or romantic. [He creates] a grotesque world, much like that of Flannery O’Conner or Walker Percy … scary, worthwhile reading.” Rolling Stone has hailed him as “America’s most popular suspense novelist.”  Here’s your chance to read his just-released new title, The House at the End of the World.

THE AUTHOR

STEEL CITY

By William J. Miller Jr.

Immersive storytelling at its finest.

THE BOOK

This is not a gilded age novel. It’s a novel of the smoke and grit that were the pride of a booming city. It takes readers to another time and another world that is distant but familiar. This historical novel takes readers to the cauldron of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania in the late nineteenth century. The steel business has made the city the industrial capital of not just the country but the world. And through the eyes of Jamie Dalton, readers witness the titanic events of that city in that age.

THE AUTHOR

WILLIAM J. MILLER JR. grew up in Pittsburgh and was always fascinated by the living connections to its storied past: the Carnegie Library and Museum, the Carnegie Institute of Technology, and, in his own neighborhood, the Frick mansion, where Henry Frick’s daughter, Helen, still lived. Mr. Miller spent his entire career in journalistic enterprises as reporter, publisher, blogger, and Time Inc. consumer marketing veteran. He graduated from the Hotchkiss School and Trinity College, Hartford, CT and lives in Watch Hill, RI with his wife, Warren, and Havanese, Jake. This is his first novel.
