Lafferty has an ODD sense of humour. Probably the best description would be a tall tale. I personally enjoyed "Past Master", but have been frequently at a loss with some of his other stories. A large number of his books are really pamphlets published by Chris Drumm. Worth tring to see if one matches his humor. [C] == Short Story Collection. [NSF] == Not SF [CP] == Chapbook (a very short book, or pamphlet).. /John arpa: JWenn.ESAE@Xerox.com reversepolarityoftheneutronflow-ly ---------------------------------------------------------------- Lafferty, R[aphael] A[loysius] [U.S.A., 07/11/1914- ] The Devil is Dead Trilogy: The Devil is Dead [1971] Archipelago [1979] More Than Melchisedech [planned] The Reefs of Earth [1968] Space Chantey [1968] Past Master [1968] Fourth Mansions [1969] Nine Hundred Grandmothers [1970] [C] Strange Doings [1971] [C] The Flame is Green [1971] Arrive at Easterwine [1971] The Fall of Rome [1971] [NSF] The Flame is Green [1971] Okla Hannali [1972] [NSF] Does Anyone Else Have Anything Further to Add?
