About this audiobook

Can you imagine a new chemical compound, a non addictive designer drug that heightens your assertiveness, opens the door to your primal self, giving you an edge wherever you compete, whether on the street or the football field, in a classroom or a boardroom? Wouldn’t you be tempted to try it…just once? What happens if it releases uncontrollable rage and makes you a killer?

“Wilson skillfully juggles subplots whose unpredictable collisions and complications further accelerate the relentless momentum of Jack’s labors.… A satisfying open-ended climax sets the stage for yet another chapter in Jack’s compelling saga.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review) on All the Rage

    A convoluted mish-mash of bad guys, good guys, evil intent, good intent, and an old monster "acquaintence" gives an especially fast 488 pages.

    Repairman Jack is a man who has lived without an identity for most of his life. When police and other authorities are no help, people hire Jack. He stops bad guys from doing harm. He doesn't like publicity, so it's word of mouth for people to find him. Junie needs a ride to visit Ifasen, a psychic. Jack and his girlfriend Gia give Junie a ride and sit in on the session. While there, an earthquake happens, centered under the psychic's house. An evil spirit/ghost starts doing damage in the house and scaring people. Ifasen believes other psychics are trying to run him out of town because he took some of their clients. He's been shot at and almost hit by a car. He also believes the spirit/ghost may be a trick by the other psychics. Ifasen hires Jack to stop them. More pieces of the "Otherness" puzzle are given here, but the complete story has yet to be revealed. A good plotline to keep readers coming back for more.

    This installment of Repairman Jack lost me in places. Like Legacies, I didn't feel like I got enough of Jack. The other characters took up too much page time and some of the - Nadia, Doug, and Luc - were just so unlikeable that I didn't care if they lived or died. Nadia and Doug weren't evil - just the opposite. They were good - too good, and I kind of wanted them to get eaten. This book's connection to the rest of the series also seems thin. Yeah, a Rakosh is involved, but only peripherally. I'm going to continue with the series, but I hope more of the books are Jack-centric.

    A new designer drug that makes people very aggressive. A medical researcher hired to work on stabilizing a mysterious molecule who fears her boss is being threatened by a notorious gangster. A travelling freak show. Repairman Jack makes a horrifying discovery as his recent cases tie all these together.Still as addictive as popcorn--and about as filling.

    Paul Wilson has discivered a unique character in Repairman Jack. He is very skilled at juggling multiple subplots and beringing them together in an unexpected ways. A great sequel to "The Tomb", and it will make you rinse out your coffee mug carefully before drinking!

    RJ is, as always, the man. The plot centers on a great concept -- a drug that makes people violent, paranoid, and angry to the extreme, like PCP on PCP, with a coke and acid chaser. If you're already a Repairman Jack fan, what are you waiting for? If you aren't, don't start here -- start with The Tomb and go in order.

    another great entry in the Repairman Jack series that also links into the series that starts with The Keep. The story begins as Dr. Luc Monnet, a researcher at a drug company, goes into a sideline business with a new designer drug that he calls Loki. However, this new drug is not only not stable, but it changes on a regular basis and Monnet cannot find out the cause. He takes on an assistant, Nadia Radzminsky, who hires Jack because she is concerned about Monnet and thinks he's being coerced into doing things he might not do otherwise. That someone turns out to be one Milos Dragovic, who is a nasty character who will do anything to maintain his place in society & to maintain his criminal operations. It turns out that this new drug, Loki, is the current rage among users, and is being put into alcoholic drinks at bars, causing people to bring out their worst violent tendencies and propensities toward violence. Jack is on the scene one night of a violent riot, where one of the rioters tries to kill Vicki, his girlfriend Gia's daughter. As he gets to the root of why the guy wanted to do this, he realizes that this drug (called Berzerk on the street)has to go away and tracks down its source. What he finds brings him back into contact with his old mortal enemy ...the rakosh.Very fun, action-packed entry into the series...on to the next one!!!!
