I suppose that we should be grateful that Middles had front-line access to MES (plus his mum) rather than relying on third party experiences that Simon Ford's book had to. That said, this is a rather cringeworthy book as Middles allows MES to witter on about virtually anything unchallenged, while he (Middles) continually asserts that everything The Fall have done is great. A more objective view wouldn't have gone amiss.

John Smith's particular brand of hermetic, often perverse sci-fi/body-horror is certainly not to everyone's taste. The existence of this collection is probably down to inclusion of the final story "Killing Time", one of Smith's more highly regarded stories from the pages of 2000AD.
