Interesting, the figures for books 10-16 have been replaced with skype phone numbers! Phew - managed to uncover the executor to van Thal's estate today (after two and a half years of bloody searching!!), so will hopefully be able to get some more information, photos etc to glean some more light on old Bertie. Now who's up for some number crunching? Here are the sales figures for every single Pan Book... book yr sales 1 1959 629,536 2 1960 529,782 3 1962 479,508 4 1963 402,792 5 1964 414,525 6 1965 390,793 7 1966 390,987 8 1967 356,794 9 1968 296,246 10 1969 282,554 11 1970 228,341 12 1971 247,354 13 1972 184,124 14 1973 187,239 15 1974 181,673 16 1975 141,252 17 1976 68,416 18 1977 63,049 19 1978 47,608 20 1979 58,810 21 1980 46,796 22 1981 44,825 23 1982 30,748 24 1983 28,770 25 1984 25,435 26 1985 20,601 27 1986 20,302 28 1987 14,456 29 1988 11,037 30 1989 6,829

Is this a whole new collection, a revision of a previously published collection? I'm a bit confused where it comes in the entire run of the Mammoth books.

I'm going to plead complete ignorance here and ask where exactly is the link to take me to the site from which to order this fine release?

Hutson was king while I was high school in the late 80s. Couldn't go wrong with him and Erebus was one I picked up around that time.
I would imagine you are all aware he's written outside the genre, with different pseudonyms? WW2, westers, that sort of thing. Some of his WW2 stuff sells well on ebay, as I recently discovered.
His recent books - oh dear. Why he's gone down the road of writing novels full of 3 page chapters is beyond me.
