A dark and beguiling tour through the streets of a magical London by the Sunday Times bestselling master of modern fantasy, Alan MooreThe year is 1949, the city London. Dennis Knuckleyard is a hapless eighteen-year-old who works and lives in a second-hand bookstore. One day, on an errand to retrieve rare books, Dennis discovers that one of them does not exist. It is a fictitious book, yet it is physically there in his hands nonetheless. How? It comes from the Great When, a dark and magical version of the city that is beyond time. There, epochs blend and realities and unrealities blur. If Dennis does not take this book back to the other London, he will be killed. So begins a journey delving deep into the city's occult underbelly and tarrying with an eccentric cast of sorcerers, gangsters, and murderers, many of whom have their own nefarious intentions. Soon Dennis finds himself at the center of an explosive series of events that may alter and endanger both Londons. Mystical, magnificently written and hilarious, The Great When is Moore's most imaginative work yet and the first in the fantastic new Long London series.

When Dennis comes into possession of a book that shouldn't exist, a new chapter in his life begins and a different, alternate London reveals itself - and with it a cast of characters each more unlikely and fantastical than the last. Long London occupies precisely the same geographical space as our London ­- but it is a city built from dreamscapes and art, from fiction and nightmares. This is the London of penny dreadfuls and William Blake's dark woodcuts, colliding with Dennis' own time - that of a post-war capital, not long rebuilding itself from its own recent nightmare of war and bombing. This series will be a mad and magical A to Z of the greatest city on earth - with a tale of friendship, murder, betrayal and mischief and the very centre of the map...

'A wonderful collection, brilliant and often moving ...

British comics writer Alan Moore (b. 1953) has a reputation for equal parts brilliance and eccentricity. Living hermit-like in the same Midlands town for his entire life, he supposedly refuses contact with the outside world while creating his strange, dense comics, fiction, and performance art. While Moore did declare himself a wizard on his fortieth birthday and claims to have communed with extradimensional beings, reticence and seclusion have never been among his eccentricities. On the contrary, for long stretches of his career Moore seemed to be willing to chat with all comers: fanzines, industry magazines, other artists, newspapers, magazines, and personal websites. Well over one hundred interviews in the past thirty years serve as testimony to Moore's willingness to be engaged in productive conversation. Alan Moore: Conversations includes ten substantial interviews, beginning with Moore's first published conversation, conducted by V for Vendetta cocreator David Lloyd in 1981. The remainder cover nearly all of his major works, including Watchmen, V for Vendetta, Swamp Thing, Marvelman, The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Promethea, From Hell, Lost Girls, and the unfinished Big Numbers. While Moore's personal life and fraught business relations are discussed occasionally, the interviews chosen are principally devoted to Moore's creative practices and techniques, along with his shifting social, political, and philosophical beliefs. As such, Alan Moore: Conversations should add to any reader's enjoyment and understanding of Moore's work.

I had been given a simple but enormous task. This was the role for which I had spent my whole life preparing.

In a world without political freedom, personal freedom and precious little faith in anything comes a mysterious man in a white porcelain mask who fights political oppressors through terrorism and seemingly absurd acts. It s a gripping tale of the blurred lines between ideological good and evil.

A timely look at how to build a more sustainable and regenerative business that is built to last
