I'm a sucker for a book list:

This week I are mostly been reading Up The Walls of The World by James Tiptree Jr and Punisher: Widowmaker.

Along with all the books what I've got to edit.

The Pat Mills commentary is all new and exclusive to this collection - Horned God that is -, as it the intro.

Much appreciated. Cheers Jock

Bit of a shot in the dark, but does anybody own the original artwork for Prog Cover 698 (Bisley Slaine) or have access to a high res scan of same? If so e-mail me on jonathan.oliver@rebellion.co.uk

Cheers

All of Lenny Zero is in MC Undercover. It would have been way to short just to do an LZ hardback. I think the two stories compliment each other quite well.
Glad that people are enjoying the book.

Name of a flower shop in Birmingham:

Orchids in Town

(Helps if you say it in a Brummy accent)

'Twas a genuine mistake. Will be rectified on the reprint.

All The Best

The Strontium Dog collections don't have title pages for the main stories. There is a page describing the Bonus material but that's it.
If you feel you have a faulty copy though, you can return it to your supplier who should be happy to send out a replacement.

It is to be reprinted next year as a Graphic Novel, in May.

Angela Carter is an excellent writer. The Bloody Chamber is a superb collection. Mean to get round to reading more of her.

Obviously

The Afterblight Chronicles: The Culled by Simon Spurrier
The Afterblight Chronicles: Kill or Cure by Rebecca Levene
The Afterblight Chronicles: School's Out by Scott Andrews

But also

A Canticle for Leibowitz by Walter Miller Jr
Chrsyalids by John Wyndham
Day of The Triffids by John Wyndham
A Boy and His Dog (Short story by Harlan Ellison)
Ridley Walker by Russel Hoban
Dr Bloodmoney by Philip K. Dick
Childhood's End by Arthur C. Clarke (apocolypse rather than post but such a good book)
The City and The Stars by Clarke

Sorry, just in the mood for lists right now. For some reason

Sorry for the delay in replying to this, have been knee deep in Abaddon MS for a while. Case Files 09 should be reaching UK shores from the printers today. Should hit shops next week. I've seen an advance copy and it looks very nice.

Worry not. Hell and High Water is certainly the next collection. Nothing will be skipped. It was a wee hiccup so apologies there. There will be a Sword of the Tsar collection too.

The Simping Detective is at our distributors and should be in shops now.
