Publisher's summary

It's February 1991. Desert Storm is raging in Iraq but 22-year-old Jack has more pressing matters at home. His favorite bar, The Spot, is about to be sold out from under his friend Julio. No longer merely reactive, Jack takes the fight to his enemies and demonstrates his innate talent for seeing biters get bit. With a body count even higher than in Cold City, Dark City hurtles Jack toward the climax of this formative New York odyssey in which all scores will be settled, all debts paid.

Dark City is the second of three new novels revealing the early years of Repairman Jack, one of the most popular characters in contemporary dark fantasy: a self-styled "fix-it" man who is no stranger to the macabre or the supernatural, hired by victimized people who have nowhere else to turn.

Best in the “Early Days” series

The only reason I’m not giving it 5 stars is because of all the terrorist stuff which is really annoying. I’m ok with side character development to give color to Jacks fixes but it just drags on and it didn’t fit with the theme. I don’t understand why Wilson cant just make books about Jack doing fixes. The “War on America” and “The Otherness” are unnecessary,
Just let Jack be Repairman Jack.

Repairman Jack Early Years Book 2

After being quite disappointed in the first novel in this series, I decided to go ahead and listen to this, the second book, I liked it quite a bit better than the first book..especially since there weren't hanging story lines as there were in the first book...

I enjoyed this so much I purchased the third in this series plus the first one in the original series..

Recommended for those who like fix-it type guys with a touch of paranormal

Going to the new world order

I find Jack to be the working mans conscience. F Paul Wilson can spin the tail of the street, with the flavor of wright and wrong, walking the fine line in the center of the highway.

Young Jack!

Loved it! The roots of the best character in a series of novels I have ever encountered. I read voraciously and only look forward to the considerable inventory available from the mind of F. Paul Wilson. Doc, you are the goods!
