sequels???

[Jay Herzog]

	I'm pretty sure Paul was being ironic when he claimed that his	
	novel approached the genius of Pynchon. As the author of one of
	the best short pastiches of GR (World Wars III), Paul clearly has
	an affection and respect for TRP and I look forward to reading the
	new book. At least he gives due credit to his inspiration, unlike
	most writers who cover their tracks...
