From: Peter G. Trei <OC.TREI%CU20B@COLUMBIA.ARPA>



	Just spoke briefly to Christopher Stasheff, author of 'The
Warlock in Spite of Himself. Though not familiar with the series
myself, I think the list might like to hear about upcoming titles:

"The Warlock Enraged"		coming out of ACE in April 85
"The Warlock Wandering"		just sent to publisher.
"The Warlock is Missing"	out June 86

	1986 will also see the publication of "Her Majesties Wizard",
a book Stasheff wrote back in 78', completely unrelated to the Warlock
series and universe.

I was in a bookstore down the street (Bound Together--The Anarchist
Collective Bookstore) and I found a book by
Stasheff called "A Wizard in Bedlam."  This is the only time I have
seen this book, but it was quite as good as the Warlock books.  I
don't know how easy it is to find, but I thought I'd mention it.

The Anarchist Collective Bookstore?

Is this a test?  Or a Magritte painting...

No, no test...a weird bookstore near my house which has one shelf of
unusual used science fiction.

Oh, I noticed that no one had mentioed "Escape Velocity" in connection
with Stasheff or the Warlock books.  This is the book which tells of
the origins of the planet on which the warlock finds himself.

Not really.  In fact, the reference it makes to the origins of that
planet (Ganymede?) seemed to me to be a bit of a sop to the
publishers.  "See if you can tie in the other stuff.  It'll help the
book sell."

"Escape Velocity" stands very well on its own, without leaning too
heavily on the Warlock stuff.  It DOES record the adventures of the
Warlock's ancestors (a couple of greats-grandfather).  And, of
course, ... But that might spoil it... Find this book and read it if
you enjoyed other Stasheff stuff.  It's worth it.
