This is starting to get (almost) annoying! And expensive. So – The Bookman Histories arrived yesterday and I took another look at the reviews on Amazon. One of the reviewers mentioned that the characters in Bookman Histories range “from Rudyard Kipling to Robert Rankin.” Kipling I know, and I know Rankin – except I was thinking of Ian Rankin, not Robert Rankin.
It looks like Robert Rankin has written a whole bunch of ‘my kind of books’ – in the Jasper FForde, Toby Frost genre (The Sprouts of Wrath, Raiders of the Lost Car Park, Waiting for Godalming, The Brightonomicon being but a few alluring titles), which I now feel desirous of purchasing. But I haven’t got all the Bryant & May’s yet!
Woe! Woe! And thrice, Woe! I wonder if it’s actually possible to break an Amazon Basket by overloading it . . .
