Why read on Fable?
Publisher Description
Jerry Cornelius is a scientist, a rock star, and an assassin. He is the hippest adventurer of them all: tripping through a pop art nightmare in which kidnappings, murder, sex and drugs are a daily occurrence. Along with his savvy and ruthless partner-in-chaos, Miss Brunner, Cornelius is on a mission to control a revolutionary code for creating the ultimate human being, a modern messiah— the final programme.
The first book in the Cornelius Quartet is the groundbreaking introduction to the misadventures and vendettas of Jerry Cornelius, one of modern literature’s most distinctive characters, the product of a bewildering post-modern culture, and an inspiration for generations of characters since.

“Sort of a precursor to some of the manic, psychadelic storytelling of Grant Morrison comics and similarly hard to follow. I really wanna like a novel when it's written by Michael Moorcock about a rock star secret agent in the swingin' sixties but it just didn't do it for me.”
