A Night In the Lonesome October

A fantasy novella by Roger Zelazny.



At first I thought Jack was Jack the Ripper. But when the blade went zip! and the woman screamed, it seemed that all that Jack took was a strip of the green cloth from her dress.

I kept picturing Jack as Castle and the witch Jill as Beckett. They both seemed as alternately smart and dumb as the TV characters.

An interesting little Halloween tale.

I enjoyed it. By the way, I just bought a used copy of Lords of Light.

Hmmm. Never read that one. I think I will.
