[There are] those of us who have buttonholed strangers on the Underground and raved about Moorcock's masterpieces <i>Byzantium Endures </i>and <i>The Laughter of Carthage</i>

Sunday Telegraph

His is the grand, messy flux itself, in all its heroic vulgarity, its unquenchable optimism, its enthusiasm for the inexhaustible variousness of things. Posterity will certainly give him that due place in English literature

- Angela Carter, Guardian

The third novel of the Pyat quartet finds Maxim Arturovitch Pyatnitski scheming his way from New York to Hollywood, Cairo to Marrakesh, from cult success to the utter limits of sexual degradation, leaving a trail of mechanical and human wreckage as he crashes towards an appointment with the worst nightmare of this century.
