I (miraculously) picked up a shrink wrapped "Michael Moorcock's Eternal Champion" box set at a local store about 5 years ago, for the original MSRP.

There's quite a few on there that I haven't read, and some that I'm not at all familiar with, but largely it confirms that there was a reason that the sorts of worlds that came out of GW appealed to me - I was reading the same sources (particularly Moorcock, Tolkien, Howard, Herbert, and, of course, 2000AD).<br /><br />Re: The Stainless Steel Rat - I recently read The Stainless Steel Rat's Revenge (I was on a Traveller kick - and I'd imagine that early Traveller was an influence on RT, not least because GW did publish some supplements for it). While the humour didn't click for me - I prefer Ezquerra's 'James Coburn' Jim DiGriz - thinking about it I can see how the wilder, more open world of RT (the first book alone) could feature plenty of 'capers' like that. Harder to see what place there is for such a rogue in the non Rogue Trader universe of later (even just briefly later) 40K. The Dune influences, though, are plain.Andy Bartletthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06683770320671028815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8801677156155723360.post-57952193854425483362014-07-03T00:47:47.052-07:002014-07-03T00:47:47.052-07:00Thanks a lot for taking the time to sort the list ...Thanks a lot for taking the time to sort the list which was spread through a rather long FB thread.

Oh, and obviously Tolkien! For fantastic fiction I would also recommend Clark Ashton Smith. Penguin are to release an anthology of his short stories and poems in August.
