Product Description: Jack finds himself, and his friends, at a traveling carnival. During a look through the freak show, they come across what was believed to be extinct: a Rakosh. Or is it? Jack had made sure that the Rakoshi were dead –exterminated. Jack style. But now, somehow, there appears to be evidence of a Rakosh. The Last Rakosh puts Jack back on the trail of this new mystery that will thrill and entertain, in Repairman Jack style.
Sorry, but this is definitely a ripoff. When doing this type of excerpt, it is incumbent upon the publisher to make clear to ALL that this is not a new work, but a reprint of an earlier work. They failed in their duty.
For those not in the know, the novel RAKOSHI! is a retitling of Wilson's THE TOMB.
research For all those spitting curses at FPW be aware that if you go to his website, he expressly says "if you already read All the Rage then you have read the Last Rakosh and there is no need to buy this version. I was astonished to have received an email response from FPW himself when I was just getting into these novels and he is very honest and forthcoming with his novels. So do some research before you spend money and stop cursing those who have not truly done you any injustice.
The Last Rakosh Rehash We can understand the frustration of those who purchased this novel. It is merely a part of a past novel, not a totally new story.
That is why we waited for it to come to our local library.
This is still an exciting read nonetheless. We love the seeming nexus and nemesis enemy in the ultra/uber-cool Repairman Jack series - the Rakoshi!
Cool and interesting creature. We think that Jack will not only run into the last rakoshi - Scar-Lip - sometime in the future of the series, but it will somehow become an ally of sorts against the bigger enemy - Ransalom, leader of the Otherness.
Great stuff, this!
This is only one Chapter out of 'All The Rage' dont buy it! Not worth $14.95 'The LAST RAKOSH' is a chapter from 'ALL THE RAGE' . All the author did was take his novel 'ALL THE RAGE', reprint one chapter of it under a new title 'The LAST RAKOSH' . they are identical. I paid $4.99 for the special edition of all the rage and paid $14.95 to buy this book and I feel that I was ripped off. Buy 'ALL THE RAGE' instead of 'The LAST RAKOSH' and you will be be a lot better off. Don't buy this book
The Last Rakosh The book was presented beautifully, nice cover, nice pages, however, I have read all of the Repairman Jack novels and was extremely disappointed when I found The Last Rakosh was nothing more than a few chapters taken out of the book Conspiracies. I expected so much more than that. I feel I paid $30 for nothing.
