Finished Tales From the "White Hart". It was amusing.
And then I just finished reading The Warlock in Spite of Himself in preparation for diving into another Crossroads Adventure book. It's a much better book than I'd have expected if I'd known ahead of time it was someone's first novel from 1969. OTOH, also has some of the expected faults of a popular sf novel of the time. On the third hand, contains way more political science than any reader now or then would have expected given the premise; all the stuff about popular uprisings leading to totalitarian dictatorships feels a bit awkwardly relevant, even if the author was at the time channeling paramoia about Communism.
