A propos du livre

Biographie de l'auteur

Martin Millar is a critically acclaimed Scottish writer from Glasgow, now resident in London. He also writes the Thraxas series of fantasy novels under the pseudonym Martin Scott. The novels he writes as Martin Millar dwell on urban decay and British sub-cultures, and the impact this has on a range of characters, both realistic and supernatural. There are elements of magical realism, and the feeling that the boundary between real life and the supernatural is not very thick. Most of them are set in Brixton, Millar's one-time place of residence. Many are at least semi-autobiographical, and Love and Peace with Melody Paradise and Suzy, Led Zeppelin and Me both feature Millar himself as a character. As Martin Scott his Thraxas novels are a fusion of traditional high fantasy and pulp noir thrillers. In 2000, he won the World Fantasy Award for best novel with his book Thraxas.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Glasgow, Scotland, 1972. To the utter astonishment of the narrator and his friends, Led Zeppelin are coming to Glasgow. Martin, the protagonist, and his equally nerdy best friend Greg, have overactive imaginations. Then they're not fighting the monstrous hordes of Xotha, they are competing for the attentions of Suzy. But she's not likely to dirtch Zed, the hippest boy in school, for the likes of them, is she? Overhead, a zeppelin approaches. It's passengers, Jimi Hendriz, Janis Joplin and Hank Williams, think it worth visiting Glasgow to see the coolest band in the world.
