An elderly junk monkey and house husband. I make comics when the mood takes me.

and from the sublime to the rediculous. I alternate books in French and English. After finishing the last book (in English) and not wanting to go downstairs I asked my son to bring up a random book from the shelves of, as yet, unread French SF... Perry fucking Rodhan... ah well, at least it's short.

currently rattling through this again and it's making me want to reread her Johnathan Strange & Mr Norrell, and Gaiman's Stardust, and Townsend Warner's The Kingdoms of Elfin - all at the same time!

Currently reading: there are some very strange, surreal, old French SF pulps with an odd 'otherness' about them that is bewilderingly fascinating. (At least to someone raised on the conventions of Anglo American SF). This sadly is not one of them. Groovy cover though.
