I read that all the way through, twice. Then I sat and thought of some Moorcock refs. I could throw in to my reply. Had some beer and a fag and decided Get Bent! was the best advice.
To both of you.

Well, I didn't discover him until the mid-eighties - and I became an avid collector. Got started off on the Michael Kane trilogy (no - not that Michael Cane. ;D ) and was hooked. I think he was in a haze mostly while hanging with the Hawks. :lol:

Charlie Higson - I have read one of his some time ago...something about Mr. Jolly or somesuch. A reet good read as I recall. All about a bloke who broke into peoples houses and did pervy stuff....
He's been writing Bond books of recent times so I see.

Runestaff, man. :notworthy:

I bought it as a birthday pressie for a friend of my brother's who I didn't like, and read it out of curiosity. Guess who didn't get a birthday present that year? :twisted:

I like Will Self. :oops:

I had to look up tontine, but knew all the others. I subscribe to the Oxford English Dictionary 'word f the day' e-mail. ;D

I'm just trying to work out what the difference is between epicene and androgynous.

:D Hawkmoon rocks. :notworthy: Probably his best work IMO.
(Other than Behold The Man - which is one of the finest pieces of literature ever written. FACT!

And glad I'm not the only Moorcock fan still alive.... :lol:
