2.0 out of 5 stars No plot, little fun, rehashed story-line, July 13 2001

By

OoOoOoO "OoOoOoO" (Singapore) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Necrom (Mass Market Paperback)

The usual Mick-style "Tour of the Universe" adventure story plus a little Cthulhu mythos cross-over. Not done well, however, No or little plausible plot, unconvincing paranoia, stop-start scripting, unconvincing characters acting out unconvincing story-line, in general poor handling of dramatic tension. No climax. Stereotypical hackwork. A long long way down from, Phaid the Gambler, Mars The Red Planet or the DNA Cowboys. I only tolerated this because I am a die-hard far-right fanatical fundamentalist Mick Farren Fan. Sorry, Mick, not one of your better days, I am afraid.

I came a cross NERCOM at the library one day. "Mick Farren.. hmm! never heard of him" ugh! what the hell I'll check it out. I opened onto the first page of NERCO hoping it wasn't another lemon from the library. But by Gaulle I never read such sci-fi like this. MICK FARREN IS THE BOMB sci-fi telling mu fu Were your books at though DAWG. You got me searching all my life.

4.0 out of 5 stars A decadent spin through the dimensions in a '51 Hudson..., July 14 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Necrom (Mass Market Paperback)

Meet Joe Gibson. The alter Mick Jagger, who instead becoming clean cut and keeping his band together, is a washed up drunk wishing for the old days of rock 'n roll glory. Enter the Aryan aztecs seemingly intend on protecting him from other wordly beings out to kill him. Throw in the most colorful and awsome demon characters put to paper to turn everything around, then toss in Necrom. A malevolent god like being whos very name makes everyone cringe, and is starting to wake up again much to the terror of everyone. Mix this together with great plot twists, beligerent humor, and you have one fast moving book of sex, drugs, rock 'n roll and demons with a Jesse James complex.

3.0 out of 5 stars Weird with a capital weeee...
I'm still not sure how I feel about Necrom. There were a lot of loose ends that don't seems to make much sense, but it was funny and weird enough in places that it kept me... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars A spiritual, drug induced romp through time and space.
Over-age rocker, against his will, travels time and space to save. . .time and space. The old god wakes, and last time he was around, he was pissed off. Read more
