Hi Paul,
I just finished Walls of the Universe and I haven’t had that much fun reading in a long time. I’m a cop and I’ve been consigned to midnight shift for a couple of months - so I finished the book on duty. Slow, cold night. But if anything gets broken into tonight, it’s your fault. Really.

I really enjoyed reading your novel The Walls of the Universe, and I wrote a review of it at the BookSpot Central website, at the following address, if you’d like to check it out:

I just finished Singularity’s Ring and can’t wait for the sequel. This was a fun story and is loaded with posibilities for continuing.
Please tell me this story will continue.

Do you have any plans to authorize Singularity’s Ring in digital format? A lot of us who read ebooks only these days are anxiously awaiting. Thanks!

Hi Paul,
I think Wall’s of the Universe will turn out to be a classic. I found the story vivid. I loved the characters. I’m looking forward to exploring more of the alternate universes you create!
Keep up the good work. ~J

I just finished reading “The Walls of the Universe.” What a blast! I have not had that much fun reading a book in a long time.
I do hope there will be more adventures with John and friends.
Please do keep writing, regardless of what you decide to write about.
I will be looking for a copy of “Singularity’s Ring” to read next.
Best regards, MACJR
