Typically readable and enjoyable
It’s early days for The Devil’s Chord as I write this, but even so the redoubtable Nicholas Whyte has already given his opinion on it, and I’m glad to say he liked it. Nicholas is one of the few people who have consistently reviewed my Black Archives, so it’s something of a relief to find that this one - which does break the format more than a little - managed to communicate what it was about, even if it’s only to him. He also picked out the history of Doctor Who licensing Tbe Beatles that forms chapter two as one of the highlights, which is more than a little gratifying since it was only meant to be a sentence in the original pitch and only expanded because I thought it was so interesting.
This is the Black Archive we need to read in the current time of confusion.
