Hi, I'm new in the SF conference.
I just borrowed a copy of Colin Wilson's "Spider World: The Delta"
today. Has anyone read The Delta stories? Would you recommend that
I read them in order, i.e. The Tower then The Delta?
Thanx
Marilyn

Hi Marilyn, I'm also new to this conference as I'm new to DEC ! However, I have read the "Spider World" series and can recommend them. You do really need to read them in order, otherwise you take all the suspense out of the first book. I have yet to come across any other books by him, does anybody know of any ? Andy | |||||

Colin Wilson's other books are decidedly different from the
Spider World novels.
His first three science fantasies were inspired by H.P. Lovecraft:
THE MIND PARASITES
THE PHILOSOPHER'S STONE
THE SPACE VAMPIRES (the basis for the film LIFEFORCE)
He's also written a few suspense/thrillers and quite a few non-fiction
books dealing with philosophy and the occult.
