Description

Loz returns to Derry & Toms to revisit an old adversary, Michael Moorcock's The Fortress of the Pearl.


Join us and marvel at our declining energy.
 


Bridle, as Loz declares The Chronicle of the Black Sword a shit book and denigrates poetry.


Along the way we 'wake the chicken'. What does that even mean? How many names are there for trousers? Why would anyone smoke stout?
 


Listen as we mull over the answers.
 


(Spoiler - we don't know)

Friends old and new join me in Derry and Toms roof gardens to discuss the work and influence of prolific British fantasist Michael Moorcock, as well as other bits of 60s and 70s genre fiction that came to me via my Grandad in the 80s and informed my world view. Books, music, role-playing games, wrestling in Featherstone Library and many other digressions await.
