What's in a name?

If you search for "Michael Prescott" on Amazon, you'll get a list of books written by me, along with books written by other people with the same name (or a similar name). Sometimes Amazon's "recommendations" feature will work the same way, directing you to books written by some other Michael Prescott.

It's confusing, but there's not a lot I can do about it.

For a chronological list of all my titles, please see the sidebar on the right-hand side of the page.

If it's an ebook and I wrote it, it will be listed there. If it's not listed, it's not mine - regardless of the name on the cover.

The trade paperback edition of Cold Around the Heart is now on sale at Amazon. This is for all those folks who don't read ebooks.

April 8, 2013

My latest book, Cold Around the Heart, is now available in Kindle, Nook, and Smashwords editions, with other editions (including a paperback) to follow shortly. Cold Around the Heart is a new novel, not a re-release of one of my backlist titles. Please see details under "Books" below.

The Shadow Hunter, the book that introduced my most popular character, Abby Sinclair, is available in three new editions: a Kindle ebook, a Thomas & Mercer trade paperback, and a Brilliance audiobook.

This is the second book in my two-book deal with Amazon Publishing, and like the previous one (Grave of Angels), it unfortunately won't be available in a Nook edition. If you'd like to read The Shadow Hunter in ebook form and you don't own a Kindle, you might consider downloading a free Kindle app, which will enable you to read the Kindle edition on a laptop, tablet, iPod, or smartphone. Or there's always the paperback or the audiobook, of course.

My new novel Grave of Angels is now on sale in Kindle, trade paperback, and audiobook editions. The book, never before published, is put out by Thomas & Mercer, a division of Amazon Publishing. Because it's an Amazon release, the ebook edition will be available only in Kindle format. Ebook readers who don't own a Kindle may wish to download a free Kindle app to read the book on their laptop, tablet computer, iPod, or smartphone. Of course the print edition, which is quite nice, is another option, as is the Brilliance audiobook, available on disc or as a downloadable file.

I saw a rough cut of Shiver. The film is faithful to the book and features strong performances by Danielle Harris as Wendy and John Jarratt as Rood.

February 9, 2011

My 1992 thriller Shiver, written under the name Brian Harper, has been filmed and is expected to come out in 2012. Probably it will make its debut on DVD. The film was written and produced by Robert D. Weinbach, and directed by Julian Richards. It stars Danielle Harris, John Jarratt, Rae Dawn Chong, Brad Harris, and Casper Van Dien.

Bonnie Parker is a small-town private detective on the Jersey shore who just happens to be named after America's most notorious female outlaw, the distaff half of Bonnie & Clyde. And though no one can prove it, she's an outlaw in her own right, willing to supplement her PI duties by acting as a professional assassin. For a price, and when circumstances warrant it, she'll take extreme measures to solve her clients' problems - permanently.

Bonnie is experienced and tough – but she's never gone up against an adversary like Pascal, a globetrotting hit man who has raised murder to the level of a fine art. During a turbulent summer night, while Bonnie struggles to untangle a web of deception that stretches to the jungles of South America, she and Pascal face off in a blistering battle for survival - a battle only one of them can win.
