The new paperback printing of Lightning came out today. It includes a ‘new’ afterword by Dean a-la Phantoms, Watchers, Strangers and Whispers. (None of these ‘new’ afterwords are actually new. In Lightning’s case, the essay was previously printed in Useless News. In the others the ‘new’ afterwords were previously printed as forewords in the Dean Koontz Signature Series editions.)
I’ve also run across an image of Invasion in The Great American Paperback. I was just flipping through the pages and stumbled over it. The interesting bit is that dispite Dean being mentioned in the picure’s caption, it is not listed under his name in the index. Both of these items will be included in the book.
