Oh good, it’s not the bad Warren Ellis. Was worried there.
He is a bad seed though.
Kind of annoyed that no words were spent to explicitly distinguish him from the other. Like, shit, I don’t know that the comic writer didn’t have a music side-gig also. Seems unlikely, sure, but now I had to google it to know for sure.
Yeah, same.
Its a David Mitchell situation alright.
Sebald is such a unique writer with an almost otherworldly authorial voice that I worry a little whether he’d seem more ordinary after reading a biography of him. Anyway, I’ve still got plenty of his stuff to read and would happily reread any of his novels, so I’ll hold off for now.
No mention of my most anticipated book: Fan-Fiction by Brent Spiner. it tells the story of a young actor named Brent Spiner that needs to solve a murder.
So we’ve gone from Kinja not showing us links to where folks replied to Kinja not notifying us when we get our precious stars? Jesus Christ.
Correct! Also, I gave you a star.
Even my love of books cannot overcome my hatred of slideshows. Please at least keep them confined to movies and tv!
