O'Malley by Paul John Hausleben
Crime, drama, and ice hockey action One of Paul John Hausleben's most iconic characters from the Adventures of Harry and Paul jumps out of the pages of those books and stars in his own novel in this masterpiece of storytelling. Ice hockey superstar, Mr. James T. O'Malley, is everyone's favorite hockey goon and the on-the-ice nemesis of The Adventures of Harry and Paul's beloved character of number twenty-seven, hockey goaltender, Paul John Henson. First introduced in the novel The Night Always Comes, O'Malley quickly became one of the most popular characters that the author ever created. Readers everywhere wondered. What was his story? Why was it that O'Malley so mean and filled with anger issues? Why did it seem as if he turned into a wild hockey goon on the ice, but he was a perfect gentleman off the ice? What is his background? This is another classic tale from the master storyteller; a novel expertly mixed with ice hockey, action, and crime and intrigue, but it also has touches of religion and emotions. O'Malley is not just a book about a wildly angry and skilled ice hockey player, but it is the amazing story of one man's journey through life. It is a testimony and a story about how nothing in life is easy, and about how perseverance eventually has glorious rewards. This novel is an instant classic and a story that will stay with you forever in both your heart and your mind.
It is very difficult to classify the work of Paul John Hausleben. One critic's words might be the best description so far, when he wrote, Mr. Hausleben is a myriad of storytelling adventures. When Mr. Hausleben writes humor, he is today's Jean Shepherd. When he dabbles in emotions, drama, sports, fantasy or the other genres that he ventures into, then he is impossible to classify. His now, seemingly endless cast of characters has become almost 'Dickens-like.' He is indeed; a master storyteller and that might be the best description of all. If you are lucky enough to meet Paul John Hausleben in person and have a chance to sit and speak with him, then we can guarantee that it will be a magical experience. If your luck is exceptional and you are able to lure him into a story or two, then it will be forever memorable. As many people, have said, you will not meet a better storyteller. Paul himself will tell you that he is not an author, he will insist in saying that he is just a storyteller. His mission is to continue to write and tell stories to warm your heart, make you laugh, and sometimes make you cry - just a little. Most of all, he deals in memories, and helping you to also remember the good times of your own life, and the special people who touched you along the way. Paul was born and raised in Paterson, and then nearby Haledon, New Jersey, and began writing at an early age. He revisited a writing career later in his life, and he now is the author of a number of novels, compilations, short stories and other works. Most of his work, touches upon nostalgic remembrances of simpler times, and tells the stories of heartfelt, humorous, and special human relationships. Other than writing, among many careers both paid and unpaid, he is a former semi-professional hockey goaltender, a music fan and music reviewer, an avid sports fan, photographer and amateur radio operator. He now resides in Somewhere, U.S.A., but his heart always remains along Belmont Avenue in good old Paterson, and Haledon, New Jersey.
