Comments and Reviews

ppint. 26th Nov 2018		reference copy provided courtesy of tony at the old pier bookshop, morecambe seafront. first in the second trilogy full of prat-falls, portentously doomy sayings and riotously simple-minded yumor for which the cover artist employed by headline, josh kirby, should not be held responsible. #1: "a malady of magicks" (1986), q.v. for the two trilogies' listings and links.
zabadak 26th Nov 2018		Rated 7/10 Not great, sort of Pratchett-lite... :erk: 2 people found this review helpful.   ✔︎ Helpful Review?
ppint. 26th Nov 2018		bar-code number truncated by too-small field: 978074723213100299 (the final five digits being the uk cover price in pence (£0.01)) the use of "on" in the typesetting line is incorrect, but "sic".
