Although I didn't buy it, I leafed through this at B&N and thought some might appreciate a heads up:



The storyline part of it looks somewhat meager, but it's got some great illustrations.  Reminds me of a VSF version of the Heavy Metal magazine.

Not a book, as such, but a literary treasure all the same.  Rescued from the depths of my workroom, a little over 3 dozen of these beauties.  Unfortunately, not a completely continuous run, but enough in a row to follow some of the main stories.  Anybody remember 'Wee Bandy', 'The Jungle Fox', 'The Hammerman', 'The Dawsons of Dumbulla', 'Emergency Squad', 'Egbert, the Private Eye', 'James B.Quick' or 'The Town Tamers'? Good stuff!

Why take Life seriously? You'll never get out of it alive!

Ian Edgington and D'Israeli's graphic novels of War of the Worlds and the two Scarlet Traces sequels.

Had ordered them as a discounted set-deal on Amazon, and was pleasantly surprised to find they were deluxe hardback editions when they turned up!

Now I want miniature versions of Major Autumn and Archie Currie.

Thanks to a very kind and considerate friend I am now the proud caretaker of a massive 1895 edition of Sloane's four volume "Life of Napoleon". It is in sturdy library binding, but some of the pages are a bit rough. Still, it is complete and chock full of beautiful pictures.
