confusing but great fun
24. Januar 2007
Format:Taschenbuch
I checked out Nostradamus Ate my Hamster from the library based just on its bizarre title and was not at all disappointed. This very unusual story was hilarious, at times disturbing, and occasionally offensive, but almost entirely enjoyable. A warning to the reader: be prepared to abandon all rationality and to suspend disbelief, because this is a book that breaks all the rules. If you enjoy the work of Douglas Adams (Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy) and Monty Python's Flying Circus, this sci-fi comedy/fantasy is highly recommended.

I love hearing Rankin read his stories
6. Dezember 2007
Format:Hörkassette
Robert Rankin has become one of my favorite authors, and I rank this as one of his best. Even better than reading Rankin, in my opinion, is hearing Rankin himself. His characterizations really bring the story to life. I still think Fandom The Fandom of the Operator is his best work ever, but I haven't read all his works. Anyway, if you're a fan of audio books and strange science fiction, you should really enjoy Rankin's audio works.

Making a Mess of the Time/Space Continuum
29. März 2011
Format:Taschenbuch
As other readers have noted, some may have trouble keeping the plot straight. In many ways, the plot is a mess. But loaded with laughs, it is a good mess. As one of the more underrated works of Robert Rankin, it is often overlooked. I would suggest many readers look at it favorably.
Our hero, Russell, starts at the local pub, only to discover that Hitler was not quite defeated and is quite alive in the present day 1990's. Hitler's current elaborate plot for world domination is nothing like the first. Time travel, a flying saucer, and the motion picture industry all play key parts in the plan. Loaded with absurd surprises, it is hard to justify giving away much of the plot in a review. Just when the reader imagines Russell defeated, another door seems to open. There are portions of this book that I must admit gave me weird and disturbing dreams. This is did not take away from my enjoyment of the book. When I regained my equilibrium and sorted the plot, I discovered that I must have enjoyed the book.
I would recommend that readers not spread the reading of this book over a long period. It tends to allow the plot to become a mess in your mind. Since there is no Cliff Notes version, any help in disciphering this book is helpful.
