I really enjoyed that and the other two that make up the original trilogy, there is five in all but I have not got around to reading the last two of them yet.

I'm on the "Ulysses Quicksilver Omnibus Vol 1" - which being 3 books rolled into one with rather a lot of pages... is taking a wee while to get through!
 
And when I've put it into the plastic sleeves this week, I'll be reading "The Educated Ape and other Wonders of the Worlds" by Robert Rankin.
