Well the Cursed Earth Asylum did gain points for referencing David Bowie....
I suppose a problem inherent in all of the novels was they had to be lengthy 'epics' to fill the space. These are by their very nature hard to do and require over the top super villains, epic quests, etc, which aren't really the bread and butter of Dredd IMO. Even Wagner himself has found there to be only a handful of winning formulas for epics, and once used, they can only be repeated to an ever diminishing effect. Hopefully the audios will be a much better format, given they'll be 60 min max?
Good luck with these Dave - I'll be listening with interest!
