BOOK -- VOLCANO
HOLY WOW BATMAN! IT’S A POTBOILER!
As
in, take the "Disaster Genre" and add in the "Occult".
Oooh!
WAIT! It's years later and in real life, the Volcano is blowing its top! Okay, its side. Yippee!
And the rights to the novel are available! WHEE!
Oh for heavens’ sake! Dell Publishing replaced my design for the cover* with a comic-book visual of a military scene. The British and Italian editions were even worse. Gah.
Never mind. The movie rights are still available!
* A simple, compelling visual. Grey clouds billowing upward. Within the smoke, the eyes of a Hawaiian goddess staring accusingly at the reader. The title, “Volcano” in tall red letters. Author’s names to be on the binding of the book.
