New Book!

I'm giving away pre-publication Net Galleys of my new book (The Memory Detective which I'm publishing under the name T.S. Nichols). If people liked Children of Paranoia and want to give the new book a read, shoot me a message and I'll try to get you a copy.

Best,
Trevor Shane

“I'll see you tomorrow,' I finally said.

'Tomorrow,' you echoed. We hung up without either of us saying 'I love you' for the first time since we'd first said it. At that moment the word TOMORROW meant the same thing. Nothing else needed to be said.”
Trevor Shane, Children of Paranoia

“Matt lead those kids through a whole cycle of emotions, from fear to anger, from anger to hate, from hate to hope. It was somewhat sanitized, somewhat canned and rehearsed, but it was marketing genius. I knew how to kill people. Matt knew how to convince people to want to kill. I'm pretty sure that there's more blood on his hands than on mine. I remember leaving the meeting when I was sixteen - frothing at the mouth, ready to start killing. The meeting gave me a purpose. I was sixteen. All I wanted was a purpose. Now, I sat watching Matt's little presentation and felt nothing. Now I had my own reasons for hating the enemy. I didn't need the slide show anymore. War will do that to you.”

Wendopolis Hi
I really enjoyed your book! :)

Wathira Nganga Hey Trevor,
when's the Children of Paranoia sequel coming out? Don't leave us hanging here!

I love the fact that you're still thinking about Children of Paranoia after having finished it. Warms the heart. And yeah, you see stories like that sometimes. One of the nightly news shows recently had a story about a girl who left the Fred Phelps church and how none of her family will talk to her any more. It really makes things hit home.

Wathira Nganga Hi Trevor,
I just read an article that mentioned a man who left the neo-Nazis. Kinda reminded me of Joseph, how he'd seen so much and taught so much hate, yet he always had a choice.

Me too! (though honestly it's just nice to know that people are reading it and enjoying it).


Bridget I am looking forward to reading Children of Paranoia once it's released in the fall. I hope it goes to the top of the book charts.


Trevor Shane Thanks - I hope the positive feedback keeps up when it actually comes out.


Michelle Hi, thanks for the friend request ^^ Your book looks really interesting!


Trevor Shane My pleasure. I consider anyone who even thinks about reading something I wrote a friend.

Even been thinking about picking up Knife of Never Letting Go. You seem to think pretty highly of it. I'm guessing you'd recommend it?
