Summary: JACK IS BACK!!!
Comment: Legacies marks the return of urban mercenary Repairman Jack, who first appeared in F. Paul Wilson's magnificent horror/action novel The Tomb. Got a problem you can't (Or won't...) go to the Police with? For a small fee, Jack could be the solution to all of your problems...
Alicia Clayton has just been hit with a bombshell: The Father she hasn't spoken to since she turned 18 has just died in a plane crash, and she's inherited the family home. Her step-brother, totally cut out of the will, is naturally a little ticked off. But could he possibly be responsible for the "Accidental" death of Alicia's Lawyer? Where is he getting the money for the Million-Dollar offers he's making for the house? Could the house hold a secret worth killing for...? And what went on there that made Alicia swear never to set foot in it again? With a little luck, Jack and Alicia may just get the answers...
Wilson does his usual excellent job, writing a briskly paced page-turner. I really hated to put the book down, and I finished it in record time. Jack is a GREAT hero, and he's got some amazing three-dimensional villains to contend with here. Unlike Jack's previous adventure in The Tomb, Legacies is straight crime-drama, so readers looking for the Horror elements present in The Tomb may be disappointed for a minute...At least until they get [drawn] into the mystery.

Summary: REPAIRMAN JACK - PART OF THE ADVERSARY CYCLE!!!!!
Comment: I agree with the other reviews that the Repairman Jack stories are some of the best out there today. But everyone seems to reference 'The Tomb' as Repairman Jack's only story to precede Legacies. Hasn't anyone ever heard of 'NightWorld'? 'Nightworld' was the conclusion to F Paul Wilson's multi-part saga entitled 'The Adversary' about an eternal war between Good and Evil. It includes the following stories: 1. The Keep 2. The Tomb 3. The Touch 4. Reborn 5. Reprisal 6. Nightworld. 'The Tomb' and 'Nightworld' are the only ones with Repairman Jack in them, but the whole series is truly amazing and worth everyone's immediate attention. Plus the fact that Nightworld won't make much sense without reading all 5 of the previous stories, and also the fact that the events in 'Nightworld' bring to conclusion several of the things left hanging in 'The Tomb'. Every Repairman Jack story is extremely worthwhile reading, but to read Repairman Jack without reading the larger 'Adversary' cycle means you're missing the core of what the Repairman Jack stories are all about (Conspiracies and Hosts being the most obvious examples).
