Review:
"There are those of us who have button-holed strangers on the Underground and raved about Michael Moorcock's masterpieces, Byzantium Endures and The Laughter of Carthage" (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 particular journey into hell that Moorcock gives us in the Pyat Quartet is as terrifying and argumentative as that taken by Dante in The Divine Comedy. And in spite of the fact that 'comedy' means 'story with a happy ending', it is also like Dante in being brilliantly, horribly funny" (Time Out)

Long, wonderfully detailed, lovingly reconstructed picture of a particular society and an individual sensibility- puts Michael Moorcock straight into the front rank of contemporary English novelists' Robert Nye, Guardian
