I just checked my bookshelf and yes, I still have my 1966 Ace Double copy of 'Mankind Under The Leash', cover by Kelly Freas (doubled with Ursula K Leguin's 'Planet of Exile'). I'm also about halfway through 'Neighboring Lives', the novel he wrote with Charles Naylor about the 19th C artists/writers enclave in Chelsea. He was a brilliant writer,sadly underread.

That Violet Blue thing

I've been skimming through comments here & I cannot believe the presumption & hysteria & vituperation of some commenters. First of all, BB is only a blog, regardless of its popularity & influence. Secondly, it's not your blog; if you don't like BB's peaches, quit shaking their tree. Thirdly, how important will this 'thing' be in 5 years? Five months, five weeks? Next week? I see an great deal of energy being expended on something that, in the grand scheme of things, is awfully unimportant.

Oh, Cory. I remember when you were just a highschool kid working at Bakka & now you're all grown up. Congratulations!
