I had fun recording my foreword to the audio book of THE RAMBO REPORT: FIVE FILMS, THREE BOOKS, ONE LEGEND (by my friend Nat Segaloff). The book is an in-depth analysis with background stories that include the origins of my novel FIRST BLOOD back in 1972.

I loved writing THE BROTHERHOOD OF THE ROSE so much that I wanted to do another like it. THE FRATERNITY OF THE STONE stands alone & requires no familiarity w/the prior classic espionage novel. But together they form a powerful bond that culminates w/THE LEAGUE OF NIGHT AND FOG.

@JohnTures2 Thanks. Writers starting their careers told me the book helped them. Makes me smile.

@_DavidMorrell Terrific books all three! I read them in law school in the early 90s and want to get them on Audible now to enjoy them again.

@GenerallyMac Thanks. Here's a print ad that NBC used for the miniseries. Various studios have optioned the trilogy for movie/tv production, but something always gets in the way. Not unusual.

@_DavidMorrell The best trilogy that should be remade into a tv series. The original Mitchum was awesome

@JoeThornton1 Thanks. The 4 titles I mention to readers curious about my work are BROTHERHOOD OF THE ROSE, plus FIRST BLOOD, CREEPERS, and MURDER AS A FINE ART. They show my various approaches to action and suspense.

@JohnPickles999 There is indeed a 4th. A novella called THE ABELARD SANCTION, available as an extra in the Ballantine Books trade paperback of LEAGUE OF NIGHT AND FOG. Maybe in the ebook also. For identification purposes, here's the cover off that edition.

Rambo gets around. The word is in the OED and used by astrophysicists to refer to a powerful group of dead stars. When I hear Rambo mentioned, I’m often caught by surprise and take a second to remember that I created him. Learn more on my website. davidmorrell.net/rambo/

@BillJordanVO Hi, Bill. Thanks. Readers told me that, except for the computer details, the books feel contemporary. I can't recall if I sent you the front and back of this postcard about the series.

@SrntFruitcake Thanks. The novel goes back and forth between Rambo and Teasle. The theme is being trapped in one's viewpoint, unable to understand someone else. Some reviewers thought Teasle was the more important character,

@_DavidMorrell Great photo. People forget he wrote one of the most successful screenplays in Hollywood history, and I believe he has a great, well-informed art collection, too, but people like to be mean

@_DavidMorrell well, violence as it really occurs is traumatising. it's wrong for it to be sanitised in words the same way it has to be in movies. there's a great quote from Sam Fuller about how if he'd filmed Omaha beach as it occured it would have been '900 yards of intestines'
