Judgment Appertaining To Books Black Wind (The Secret History of the World)

I really enjoyed how everything came together in the end of this book. I think this is the first book I've really read that specifically involved events of world war 2, but it was still felt different, new, and exciting for the story to not involve the Germans. I'm tempted to rate it a 4, but I feel like it took me way too long to read.

BLACK WIND is one of my favorite books in my life. This is definitely FPW's masterpiece.Historical facts mixed with fictional horror:Kuroi Kaze. But also there were friendship and betrayals, love and hate. Very touching story.And another my favorite reason:I designed this cover.

Great insight to the thoughts of two very different cultures.Interesting theory of the notorious Pearl Harbor "ignored warnings".Repulsive super natural cult.Romance, betrayal, intrigue, prejudicewhat more could a good novel deliver?

This is a really good story of the relationship between two men in the events leading up to WW2 and the war itself. Matsuo and Frank Slater grow up together as boys in San Francisco until a traumatic separation tears them apart and sets them against one another. This is a novel of the Secret History of the World by F. Paul Wilson and has a very minimal supernatural aspect that gives some insight into the Repairman Jack novels. I would highly recommend this for just about anybody, there is a

Story 3 in F Paul Wilson's Secret History of the World. After two short stories (Demonsong & Aryans and Absinthe), Black Wind is the first full length novel in Wilson's Secret History of the World and what an eye-opener. F. Paul Wilson shows that he can juggle multiple types of genres at once and the has a flair for drama in this epic decade spanning story of WWII Japan/US relations. Wilson balances the viewpoints of five main characters and it's a strong effort, every character's voice,

Few of my favorite quotes from this really good F. Paul Wilson read:"The breeze changed, not only in direction but in quality. It came from the center of that cloud. This was no briny puff of trade winds off the ocean. This air was stale, cold, musty, wet and sour, like an updraft from a forgotten dungeon in the soul...(p. 337)""I think I've wasted too much of our time wishing I could change the past. Nagata used to tell me that a wise and happy man is one who reveres the past and learns from

A stunning novel. Probably Wilson's best written book. He weaves an amazing story of four interconnected characters over the course of 20 some odd years set over WWII. Twisting a bit of the super natural and a strong love story in and out of major historical events ending with the bomb drop at Hiroshima. Really if you have any interest in historical fiction and original takes on the genre seek this one out.
