Showmasters Admin showmasters Posted January 9, 2014 Showmasters Admin Share Posted January 9, 2014 Latest Guest Announcement - Robert Rankin Attending: SAT/SUN Roberts books are a mix of science fiction, fantasy, the occult, urban legends, running gags, metafiction, steampunk and outrageous characters. According to the (largely fictional) biography printed in some editions of his books, Rankin refers to his style as 'Far Fetched Fiction' in the hope that bookshops will let him have a section to himself. Many of Rankin's books are bestsellers. ROBERT Rankin's latest book - The Chickens of Atlantis and other Foul and Filthy Fiends - is the fourth and final in his Victorian series (The Japanese Devil Fish Girl, The Mechanical Messiah and The Educated Ape) and is the autobiography of a time-travelling Victorian monkey butler. He launched this last installment of the adventures of Darwin (the aforementioned monkey butler) at the Winter London Film and Comic Con last year, and will also be signing copies of his most recent illustrated book - Alice on Mars - (which is shortly to be made into a feature length motion picture) at Newcastle Film and Comic Con 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
