Train To Italy (Or Spain)

In  "The Vengeance Of Rome" by Michael Moorcock, the fourth and final part of the Pyat quartet, I have less than a hundred pages to go (2,200), and Max is on a train to either Italy or Spain, who knows where. The books have actually been uneventful on a large scale, but have had a lot happening on the ground. I want to find out how Max ends up in his shop in London, but there are not that many pages to go, so who knows how that will happen.

While I will never read these books again, it has still been a strange and interesting journey. I still have two-thirds of this book to go.

I am still reading "Imajica" by Clive Barker on my Kindle. This is a book I never want to end. When I finish it, I just restart it.

I recently discovered that my American Amazon Author page has a feed from this blog, which you can see here. It only shows on the .com site but not on others. C'est la vie.

A Jailbreak In Germany

"The Vengeance Of Rome" by Michael Moorcock, the fourth and final part of the Pyat quartet, and Max finally escapes his jail cell in Munich. Still, the SS are out looking for anyone to arrest, much like ICE in the USA today, so Max can't even get on a train to leave for safety.

While I will never read these books again, it has still been a strange and interesting journey. I still have two-thirds of this book to go.

Back To 1930s Germany

"The Vengeance Of Rome" by Michael Moorcock, the fourth and final part of the Pyat quartet, now finds Max back in 1930s Germany, fantasising about his mechanical creations, which come from the realms of science fantasy and will never come to fruition. There have been some unsavoury incidents with Hitler, the less said about them the better.

While I will never read these books again, it has still been a strange and interesting journey. I still have two-thirds of this book to go.

Stuck In Munich

It is New Year's Day, and I am committed to keeping this blog going despite it being bloody awkward to use. So here goes.

"The Vengeance Of Rome" by Michael Moorcock, the fourth and final part of the Pyat quartet, now finds Max stuck in Munich spying on the Nazis dor Mussolini, except nobody wants to talk to him.

While I will never read these books again, it has still been a strange and interesting journey. I still have two-thirds of this book to go.

To Munich And Berlin

"The Vengeance Of Rome" by Michael Moorcock, the fourth and final part of the Pyat quartet, now finds Max on a luxury train, to spy on the Nazis as an "ambassador" for Il Duce, Mussolini. As usual, things keep going wrong, but at least Max is seeing a lot of Europe at the moment.

Italian Girls

"The Vengeance Of Rome" by Michael Moorcock, the fourth and final part of the Pyat quartet, now finds Max in favour with Il Duce, Mussolini, while also carrying on with his wife and mistresses. All the sex is implied. The text jumps from Italy pre-Second World War to Ladbroke Grove in the 1960s.

While I will never read these books again, it has still been a strange and interesting journey. I still have four hundred pages to go.

Majorca

 

Just restarted this after being on holiday in Settle and "The Vengeance Of Rome" by Michael Moorcock , the fourth and final part of the Pyat quartet, is started. Now Max has landed on a yacht in Majorca but I am not sure where this is going. The timeline constantly flips from the 1920s to the Second World War to the 1960s.

The Vengeance Of Rome

"Jerusalem Commands" by Michael Moorcock is complete, and "The Vengeance Of Rome", the fourth and final part of the Pyat quartet, is started. When I started the first book in May this year, the first chapter was forty pages and the start of a difficult but worthwhile read, but this one is on Chapter five in the first five pages, and has now settled into the normal format. I am relieved to have made the final book, a second-hand Tyneside library copy from Amazon.
