Product Information

With choice now stripped away, Alex breaks into the house, takes the heart but ends up in a fight with the elderly owner that result in the owners death when the heart seems to strike out at him.

I don’t really want to say much more about the story for fear of spoiling it but it is genuinely a rollercoaster ride flying from one event to another sometimes leaving you breathless and even sometimes leaving you a little confused but in a good way. Essentially it makes you focus and think a bit. The text is beautifully descriptive throughout and the characters, especially Alex and Benny, are so well developed in a very short space that you feel for them within a few short paragraphs. The whole story crosses so many genres being part crime, mystery, science fiction, fantasy, steam punk and horror that there is something for everyone and the moments of horror are plentiful and actually scary thanks to Mark Morris’ excellent descriptions. Truthfully the whole book is terrifying if, when you strip out time travel and monsters, it is essentially the great lengths a father will go to, to protect his 5 year old child who is missing and possibly dead and anyone who has a child will understand that.

After winning two League Cups, in 1974 and 1980, Wolves suffered three consecutive relegations, ending up in the fourth division. But it started when he was hanging with Waddy and with fellow songwriter LeRoy Marinell. It’s one of many examples of his fun and fearlass “ Let’s all dive into the deep end right now!” approach to songwriting. Browne convinced his label, Asylum, to sign Zevon, and they did, pairing them in the studio with Browne producing. They didn't record "Werewolves Of London" for Zevon's first Asylum album, Warren Zevon, in 1976, because Browne - already a savvy industry veteran with three albums under his belt - knew that Zevon's more outlandish songs like " The French Inhaler" and " Desperados Under The Eaves" wouldn't make it to his second Asylum album, so they had to record them while they had the chance. They had fun with fast, alliterative phrasing, such as “little old lady got mutilated late last night.” And Warren was the one who added the odd but funny, unrhymed details at the end of verses, such as “His hair was perfect,” and “I’d like to meet his tailor.”

Established in 1877, Wolverhampton Wanderers were founder members of the Football League along with eleven other clubs. Now known as the English Football League (EFL), it was the world’s first domestic football league. Warren Zevon is the epitome of this dynamic. The man who wrote the brilliantly funny, ingenious song “Genius” was a songwriting genius. He was a guy who could write those previously unwritten, unimagined songs all the time. Whether writing alone, or with his best friend and most reliable collaborator, Jorge Calderon, Zevon was always about expanding song content. But always in service of the song. This song, basically, though, was written as a "goof" by a bunch of guys hanging out at someone's house in LA... Wolves were once present in Great Britain. Early writing from Roman and later Saxon chronicles indicate that wolves appear to have been extraordinarily numerous on the island. [1] Unlike other British animals, wolves were unaffected by island dwarfism, [2] with certain skeletal remains indicating that they may have grown as large as Arctic wolves. [3] The species was progressively exterminated from Britain through a combination of deforestation and active hunting through bounty systems.

Souther also make appearances on Excitable Boy. In a series of caves discovered in a quarry in Oreston, Plymouth, a Mr Whidbey found several bones and teeth of a species of canis indistinguishable from modern wolves. Richard Owen examined a jaw bone excavated from Oreston, which he remarked was from a subadult animal with evidence of having been enlarged by exostosis and ulceration, probably due to a fight with another wolf. The other bones showed evidence of having been gnawed by small animals, and many were further damaged by workmen in their efforts to extricate them from the clay. Unlike those of the Kirkdale wolves, the Oreston remains showed no evidence of having been gnawed on by hyenas. [3] Cureton, Sean K. (August 18, 2016).

The tune is nicely minimalist, reminiscent of a variety of older songs ("Shambala" with a dash of "Sweet Home Alabama," maybe?). Island burial was a practice also adopted on Tanera Mòr and on Inishail, while in Atholl, coffins were made wolf-proof by building them out of five flagstones. Wolves probably became extinct in the Scottish Lowlands during the thirteenth to fifteenth centuries, when immense tracts of forest were cleared. [1] James I passed a law in 1427 requiring three wolf hunts a year between 25 April and 1 August, coinciding with the wolf's cubbing season. [4] Scottish wolf populations reached a peak during the second half of the 16th century. Mary, Queen of Scots is known to have hunted wolves in the forest of Atholl in 1563. [4] The wolves later caused such damage to the cattle herds of Sutherland that in 1577, James VI made it compulsory to hunt wolves three times a year. [1]
