Contains the stories "Bimbos Of The Death Sun" and "Zombies Of The Gene Pool", two very good stories involving Fandom and murder. The quote below, from "Zombies", reminds of when I had the flu last week...

..."Are you all right?" An instant later they could see he wasn't. The smell of vomit and voided bowels reached them them and made them draw back, even before Marion saw the stiffening form of the room's occupant, sprawled across the sill of the bathroom.
Elizabeth MacPherson goes on a "Mystery" tour in the south of England. Really good story with many interesting tidbits of information and humerous incidents. Several characters are from the San Diego area, and one is from La Mesa!
Not a mystery, a bus tour by people who revered Dale Earnhart to various NASCAR race tracks. More car racing info. than I really wanted to know!! TITLE should be changed to "St. Dale", I did a boo-boo.
Eleizabeth MacPherson is in the looney bin, A. P. Powell gets a strange phone call from a law-school chum who is on the lam.

Geoffrey Chandler, a mainstay of his local community theatre, was often thought to be quoting Noel Coward even when he wasn't. It was an effect into which he put considerable effort. --pg. 121

This book was hard to read. That is, it went very slowly, and I found myself re-reading portions I had glazed over. Being a little paperback did not help! Some of it was a bit disturbing, too. I'm glad I read it. Maybe I'll watch the movie sometime. And I wonder how Frankie turned out in the end.
