His new novel, Red Moon, is now available from Grand Central Publishing. It is the May selection of the TNB Book Club.\nJohn Irving says\n\n&quot;Red Moon is a serious, politically symbolic novel&amp;mdash;a literary novel about lycanthropes. If George Orwell had imagined a future where the werewolf population had grown to the degree that they were colonized and drugged, this terrifying novel might be it.&quot;\n\nAnd Library Journal, in a starred review, raves\n\n&quot;This literary thriller by an award-winning young writer will excite fans of modern horror who enjoy a large canvas and a history to go with their bloody action. . . . Fans of Max Brooks's zombies and Justin Cronin's vampires will enjoy the dramatic breadth of Percy's tale of werewolves.&quot;\n\nMonologue topics: the Internet, blackouts, addiction, meditation, masturbation, my mother.\n","author_name":"Otherppl with Brad Listi","author_url":"http:\/\/otherppl.com","html":"<iframe title=\"Libsyn Player\" style=\"border: none\" src=\"\/\/html5-player.libsyn.com\/embed\/episode\/id\/2323143\/height\/90\/theme\/custom\/thumbnail\/yes\/direction\/forward\/render-playlist\/no\/custom-color\/88AA3C\/\" height=\"90\" width=\"600\" scrolling=\"no\"  allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen><\/iframe>","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/assets.libsyn.com\/secure\/content\/5683584"}
