J-Morr that first one sounds like it has at least a fifty per cent chance of being absolutely awful

OMG Blood's a Rover, the final enstallment in James Ellroy's 'American Tabloid' trilogy! Coming out in Sept, yay.

wasn't "Blood's a Rover" the title of the Ellison sequel to "A Boy and His Dog" or was that the original novella title or something

I enjoyed JPod and Gum Thief (GT slightly less so, if I'm honest), but fingers crossed!
I'm really keen to see some of his non-fiction stuff, particularly anything related to his being a 'visual artist'...

Oh, definitely, but it could also be really good. As I say, it appeals despite its potential for rubbishness.

A translation of this, but I don't know if anyone will make one.
