It's set to be released this year, as 2011 is the 100th year anniversary of Peake's birth.Syednoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5711195880526876235.post-11628091477413243452011-01-14T11:07:57.995-05:002011-01-14T11:07:57.995-05:00@Patrick - Will do on Chiang.

Did you hear about a fourth book being released called Titus Awakes? It seems a bit dubious since it was based only on notes from Peake with his wife trying to finish it decades ago now. The things people find in trunks sometimes.Mad Hatter Reviewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16020033648108721552noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5711195880526876235.post-81182182811043410232011-01-12T16:41:14.747-05:002011-01-12T16:41:14.747-05:00You haven't read the Gormenghast novels yet?

Well, you're in for a treat, although as many people say, the last book was a bit of a letdown (to be fair, Peake was very ill - both mentally and physically - when he wrote it).Syednoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5711195880526876235.post-65971911717599414992011-01-10T13:28:26.894-05:002011-01-10T13:28:26.894-05:00That is a pretty sick collection of books right th...That is a pretty sick collection of books right there.<br /><br />Let me know what you think of Lifecycle. I thought it was more like an overlong short story than a worthwhile novella.
