You’re going to want GOD’S JUNK DRAWER I’m just saying. First book in a long time where I had no idea what was coming next.

Peter Clines @peterclines.bsky.social · Aug 14

Guess it's time to update the pinned post.

I'm Peter Clines. I write books. Some of them are very popular. All of them are fun in a sci-fi-horror-speculative sort of way. The newest, GOD'S JUNK DRAWER, is out November 11th. I also post about other folks' books, movies, toys, and other stuff I enjoy

The cover for GOD'S JUNK DRAWER by Peter Clines, showing a dinosaur skeleton in a black void, along with a space suit helmet, a human skull, a bionic arm, and a stone-tipped spear.

The cover of THE BROKEN ROOM showing two massive red doors opening to reveal an old classroom chair. On the wall behind it, a small child sits in the chair

The cover for PARADOX BOUND showing an old fashioned car driving on a Mobius strip

The cover for TERMINUS, showing a stormy sea with an island in the distance, and massive tentacles reaching down out of the dark clouds

I never got past the trauma of Keiko leaving him.

If you're a fan of my book THE CONTEST I'll note I have another book (a very different book) called NINE TENTHS that's more "superhero noir" and maybe you should check that out.

Immediately preorder, you fools.

Peter Clines @peterclines.bsky.social · Aug 26

More than 35 of you have liked this so I'm contractually required to tell you I have a new book coming out just after Halloween. And you can preorder it now.

The cover of GOD'S JUNK DRAWER, showing a dinosaur skeleton floating against a black void. Other items float around it, including a human skull, a bionic arm, and a spacesuit helmet.

Stephen is an awesome writer (check out his Eric Carter series) and I’m always grateful when he boosts the signal like this.

I'll note the Kindle version of The Contest is a very specific 53% off. Why 53%? Even Gillian, a puzzling expert, couldn't figure this out.

Jeff Macfee @jmacfee.bsky.social · Jul 7

It would appear The Contest is on a "limited time deal" with Amazon. So if you like seemingly smart characters who get in their own way, buy it for the first time, or again, to get those savings. www.amazon.com/Contest-Jeff...

I’ve got this book. Fantastic.

THE CONTEST is more noir than anything, with a little Willy Wonka flair. If that sounds crazy, pick up a copy and see for yourself. Seen here at Tattered Cover in Denver.
