Replay is very much on my list! A few years back I wrote the intro for a German reissue of the book. Timescape was perhaps the first title I jotted down: it's a book I love, and I'm glad of the excuse to reread it! I'm not going to reread the May! -- I quite enjoyed it, 'way back when, but four fat vols is a bit much to contemplate. Thanks for the reminder, though: I recall enough of the quartet for the necessary sentence or two. Guess I'd better pull Johnny and the Bomb off the shelf; I've not read it and didn't realize time travel was involved.
Have you any idea if the original novella version of "Behold the Man" is in print anywhere? I must have read it half a dozen times in my youth -- in its first New Worlds publication no less! -- but my copy has long gone.
