Rolnikov, Mad Knight of Uttar Pradesh, by Stephen William Theaker
|
|
| This,
the third novel by Stephen William Theaker, author of Professor Challenger in
Space, will feature Rolnikov,
Mad Knight of Uttar Pradesh, and his squire, Pelney,
scene-stealing stars of Quiet, the Tin Can Brains are Hunting!, in their very
own adventure.
There are so many tales to tell of this incredible pair that the author has yet to decide which to tell. Should he tell the story of how Rolnikov came to be know as the Knight of Uttar Pradesh? What of how he came to leave Earth and travel the spaceways in search of adventure? How did he meet Pelney? And will he ever find solace in the arms of the Orbiting Princess? We cannot guarantee that all these questions will be answered – quite possibly all will be postponed to later books in what is sure to become one of the most acclaimed sequences of fantastic adventure to be published since the heyday of science fantasy in the 1970s. Note that the cover is, for the time being, merely a placeholder. Once we know what the book is about, we will be sure to commission a thrilling piece of original artwork from our Silver Age Books resident artist. Publication: 13 December 2002 ISBN 0 9537650 4 0 Price: £5.99 Pre-order this book from Amazon! (You never know, someone might write it one day.) |
