Whew Okay It s good, obviously It s also like wading through treacle The entire plot is fragmented throughout the book, so you get the feeling that you re stuck inside all of it at once, without knowing what s what It s about Cousin Eliza back when she was called Christine, and about Chris Cwej after the Gallifreyan military scrambled him It s about Fitz Kreiner after Interference, retroactively, and about I M Foreman s bottle Or other bottles Bottles are definitely involved It s about big thing [...]
The only book I ve ever read which establishes canonically that Kenickie songs and album tracks at that are still sung in the 26th century Not that I knew this going in I read this because of the Time War behind the Time War and I use the word behind advisedly, given Miles response to The Name of the Doctor like the Doctor, many of us have now seen terrible things in the course of the war, things we cannot unsee , because after the last Doctor Who season finale, I wanted to read the one novel I [...]
As the forward by author Lawrence Miles says this Mad Norwegian Press reprint of his 1999 novel Dead Romance is really for two groups of people those who are Virgin New Adventures fans who missed it the first time round and those who ve been reading the Faction paradox books Well I fall into the first category having come into the Virgin New Adventures very late I came to Dead Romance aware of its reputation as one of or even the best of that book range So in short Dead Romance is what Doctor Wh [...]
I ve been going on a bit of a journey through the works of Lawrence Miles after reading Alien Bodies and really enjoying it My favourite author is Douglas Adams, and Miles really did feel like he had something distinctly adamsian about his writing Since then, I ve read Interference, and found it to be a pretty good romp with great ideas and abysmal pacing, and I ve just finished reading Dead Romance, which I found to be a pretty good romp with great ideas and abysmal pacing I wonder if this is g [...]
nwhytevejournal 2694932mlI don t quite get the immense reverence shown to Lawrence Miles and the Faction Paradox concept by the literary end of Whovian fandom on the other hand I thoroughly enjoyed this, even though it is a book in the series of Bernice Summerfield novels where she doesn t appear at all except as a personality of the far future, the Doctor appears only in distorted form, and the one continuity character is Chris Cwej Paradoxically, this makes it a rare case of a Who book that o [...]
So here I am at the prehistoric roots of Faction Paradox This book is from 1999 It comes from the Virgin New Adventures line, at a point where they had lost the license to write Doctor Who books, but before Lawrence Miles leaped off into his own idiosyncratic Faction Paradox line So it s quasi almost canonical but not semi heterocanonical But still idiosyncratic, of course.London, 1970 the Autumn of Love, as it were, with Charles Manson ranting in prison about the End of Days Druggie hipster wis [...]
i ve read this book twice perhaps three times before and i ve now started again three points 1 fantastic book wonderfully written, incredibly creative.2 i am unaware of any of the related books it has always been a stand alone for me.3 previous readings have been prior to my introduction to lovecraft ian items we ll see if anything that i didn t notice from previous readings creeps out from the shadows and surprises update 4 22 13 pausing the reread as bought 2 new books.
WOW This book was great I really loved how the author made us think the book itself was going to be based on the boy built from dead parts, but it had so many twists and turns that we dont know what is happening or going to happen to the guy Cant wait to read the next book
Good stuff astoundingly weird horror sci fi Seems to be the basis for a scad of other novels, some of which I m after reading.
