| Editorial Review | "...suspenseful page turner...Robert Ferrigno, the author, builds up the characters well and he meshes them together in a frightening glimpse into a post apocalyptic world." -- BlankMindBlog "...[Ferrigno] is effectively asking us to consider how far we might go to restore some sense of order to the moral cesspool he's described in the past...and the answer is pretty far...leave(s) us thoughtful long after its ample thrills are over." -- BrothersJudd "If you seek comfort, this is not a book for you...you will probably come away from reading Prayers for the Assassin pissed off and fearful. I know, I did." -- BabyTrollBlog --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. |
| About the Author | Robert Ferrigno was born in South Florida, a tropical backwater rife with mosquitoes and flying cockroaches. After earning college degrees in Philosophy, Film-Making, and Creative Writing, he returned to his first love, poker. He spent the next five years gambling full-time and living in a high-crime area populated by starving artists, alcoholics, thieves and drug dealers, becoming friends with many people who would later populate his novels. He used some of his winnings to start a punk rock magazine called The Rocket, where he interviewed the Clash, Elvis Costello, Iggy Pop, etc. The success of The Rocket got him a job as a feature writer for a daily newspaper in Southern California, where he took the adventure-and-new-money beat. Over the next seven years he flew jets with the Blue Angels, drove Ferraris, and went for desert survival training with gun nuts. He ultimately gave up his day job to become a novelist, and his first book, The Horse Latitudes, was called "the fiction debut of the season" by Time magazine. His most recent novel, The Wake-Up, was described by Kirkus Reviews as "Sharp, fast, and slick. Ferrigno can read like Raymond Chandler on speed, with pages turning and adrenaline pretty high throughout." Prayers for the Assassin is his ninth novel. He lives in Washington State with his family. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. |
