Comments and Reviews

ppint. 12th Jan 2024		full original wizard of ~ series plus side-branch novel listed, links to & fro individual titles fettled'n'tested ok (yr hmbl srppnt.'s not seen the considerably later tenth, apparently set after the conclusion to the series.)
ppint. 5th Dec 2018		the wizard of ~ series #1: #1: "the wizard of 4th street" (1987) (this novel) #2: "the wizard of whitechapel" (1988), q.v. #3: "the wizard of sunset strip" (1989), q.v. #4: "the wizard of rue morgue" (1990), q.v. #5: "the samurai wizard" (1991), q.v. #6: "the wizard of santa fe" (1991), q.v. #7: "the wizard of camelot " (1993), q.v. #8: "the wizard of lovecraft's cafe" (1993), q.v. #9: "the last wizard" (1997), q.v. #9 was announced upon its cover to be the magical culmination of the series. no uk/uk & commonwealth (excluding canada) editions of #1-9 & #A were licenced; most or all of the warner books group merkin mmpb editions of the titles were distributed in the uk by cambridge book services ltd. or by the associated(?) wholesalers / distributor, amalgamated book services ltd., bearing large white, initially peelable white labels on their back covers, with bar-codes, bar-code numbers and uk prices printed on in black ink, restocking them as needed for a while. these two wholesalers also distributed a number of other popular library, warner books, and warner books popular library questar series, paperback library, and warner paperback library mmpb fantasy & sf series in the uk. i believe they were based in warehouse(s) & offices at 208 maidstone road, tonbridge, kent (iirc). there was then a break, and nicholas yermakov/simon hawke seems to have self-published a further novel via amazon, announced upon the front cover to feature ''the wizard of the 4th street'': #10: ''a spell for the dying'' (2023), q.v. quite closely associated, but from a slightly different litter: #A: "the nine lives of catseye gomez" (1992), q.v. catseye gomez seems to appear first in #6: ''the wizard of santa fe'' (1991), q.v. but i'll have to re-read the books to be sure that this was his first bow upon the wizard of ~ series' stage.
