Venice and then Rome



 "Laughter In Carthage" by Michael Moorcock is still very dense, Max (Pyat) is obsessed with flying machines and Christianity as a conquering force, nothing else. He and Esme are now in Rome, via Venice with a view to getting Paris while observing triple-decker funeral trams.

 "Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe" by Benjamin Alire Sáenz, which is a far easier read, but Ari is just recovering in hospital from a car accident after saving Dante

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.

The Music is "Early Roman Kings" by Bob Dylan from the album "Tempest".

It's All Greek To Me


"Laughter In Carthage" by Michael Moorcock is still very dense Max (Pyat) obsessed with flying machines and Christianity as a conquering force, nothing else. I have also started reading "Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe" by Benjamin Alire Sáenz, which is a far easier read, and I have slipped through to page thirty.

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.

The Music is "Flying" by The Faces
