Reseña del editor
Imagine John Lennon met Mick Jagger around 1968, really hit it off, went through the collapse of modern civilisation together, and changed from rockstars into genuine heroes.
And came out on the other side ruling England.
And imagine they were both in love with the same girl, and this gorgeous babe they both adored turned out to be . . .
But this story isn't actually set in 1968, it's an alternate Now, and Fiorinda is no hapless sixties rock chick, but a formidable power in her own right: a child of our times and a timeless heroine.
Bold As Love is an evocative Arthurian fantasy in which cultural icons (rock and roll stars) are cast as man of destiny, peerless warrior companion at his side, with a band of faithful companions, a princess in jeopardy, battle scenes, fancy dress, Celtic mythology, true romance, a wicked magician, the Holy Grail . . .
More magical than the classic Divine Endurance, more exciting and moving than the award-winning White Queen: Bold As Love is a shamelessly romantic fantasy about England that asks what would happen to the rock nobility if all those protest songs and idealist opinions were put to the test . . .

Octavo, boards. First edition. Signed by Jones. First book of the "Bold as Love" sequence. "The five novels take their titles from Jimi Hendrix's song list, and they tell the story of a near-future "Dissolution" of England, in which rock stars rise to the occasion of holding a nation together in the face of environmental crisis, economic collapse, Internet quarantine, a bloody coup, and the threat of a Neurobomb technology that can break the mind/ matter barrier. Three major musician characters, Ax (president of the Rock 'n' Roll Reich), Fiorinda (protector of the displaced masses), and Sage (who comes back alive from the Zen Self neuroscience experiments), enact an Arthurian saga of power politics and love. Arthur, Guinevere, and Lancelot in a threesome . Normally, serious literary fiction flirts withSF only in the form of dystopia, but BOLD AS LOVE puts the question positively: What would it take to build a utopia, and who would you put in the seats of that Round Table? Rock stars . our new royalty?" - GoodReads. Winner of the 2002 Arthur C. Clarke Award. Sargent, British and American Utopian Literature, 1986-2009. A fine copy in fine dust jacket. (#160775).
