Best Read

[Peter Loew]

Try Clive Barker. Hellraiser was based on his novel, "The Hellbound Heart".

There was a 2000AD character based on "The Stainless Steel Rat" by Harry Harrison.

Those were the days.

For a long journey I would reccomend Salman Rushdies The Satanic Verses -perhaps one of the best books I have ever read .

I would be interested to know if anyone else has read the book - I didnt read it when it came out as I thought it was a theological book - which it is not -in fact it is incredibly funny and yet profound.

And Rushdie is a brilliant author.

As to the controversy surrounding the book - in my view it is not defammatory - rather it is holding a mirror to human vanity to show the way that inevitably we distort the truth for our own purposes.
