Did Robert publish the following novels: THE DEVIL'S CANTINA, HAGAKURE, and JUNGLELAND?

No. Even though these titles often show up on Amazon.com and in catalogs, no books by Robert were published with these titles. Robert often has a 'working title' for a manuscript, and most often that title changes several times before Robert selects the 'real title' for publication. THE DEVIL'S CANTINA was once the title for L. A. REQUIEM; HAGAKURE was the working title for STALKING THE ANGEL; and JUNGLELAND was the working title for FREE FALL.

Will any of Robert's books be made into movies?

HOSTAGE, starring Bruce Willis, will be released on March 11 by Miramax films in North America.

The movie rights for DEMOLITION ANGEL were purchased by producer Laurence Mark (AS GOOD AS IT GETS, JERRY MAGUIRE) but the project seems to have stalled in pre-production. If this changes, we'll update it here on the site.

Although Robert has received numerous offers from Hollywood to buy the screen rights to the Elvis Cole novels, he has no intention of selling them.

Can I get an autographed photo of Robert?

Currently, we're just not set up for that. If we're in a position to offer photos of Robert in the future, we'll announce it on the site.

Can I send my books to Robert to have them inscribed?

Robert loves to personalize his books, and did sign books through the mail for years, but the number of requests has risen to a level that he's had to discontinue the practice. Robert regrets this, as he truly enjoys interacting with his readers and appreciates the compliment of an autograph request, but we'd much rather have him writing new novels. We hope you agree.

Does Robert read his email?

Our policy is to cull Robert's email of rude commentary, business propositions, and other inappropriate correspondence. All other email is read and answered by Robert.

I have a terrific idea for a story! Would Robert like to write it?

Due to legal reasons, as well as the unfortunate fact that Robert doesn't have enough time to write many of his own ideas, he cannot read, consider, or comment upon any unsolicited material. We are under strict orders from the lawyer to cull all such requests and we do not forward them to Robert. Although many of you have wonderful literary ideas, please do not send stories, notions, ideas, concepts, or anything of this sort. We  return all such submissions unread. Robert  wishes all of you who may be aspiring writers the best of luck with your writing endeavors.

In what order were the Elvis Cole novels published?

Robert doesn't believe that the books need to be read in order, but if you're curious: THE MONKEY'S RAINCOAT, STALKING THE ANGEL, LULLABY TOWN, FREE FALL, VOODOO RIVER, SUNSET EXPRESS, INDIGO SLAM, L.A. REQUIEM, THE LAST DETECTIVE, and THE FORGOTTEN MAN. DEMOLITION ANGEL and HOSTAGE were published after L.A. REQUIEM, but are not part of the Elvis Cole series.
