If I'd wanted people laughing at my books, I'd have tried writing comedy: the comedy in Eat Them Alive is purely unintentional. In other words, it's curtains for Keko! I'll admit to never having read the book, but I do remember a friend (who was thinking of following my lead and writing some horror fiction) reading extracts to me one evening at his house in Boston, Lincolnshire - and both of us rolling around howling with laughter. Keko smiled his trust in Dyke and ran to tell the others that no danger awaited them. I think you'll have such a good time that you'll never go back to the mainland." But I did object to being accused of writing Eat Them Alive because - even by pulp horror standards - it is reputed to be execrable. I didn't in the least mind being accused of writing an incredibly violent pulp horror novel, because that's what I used to do for a living, and, to be fair to the rumour-mongers, the mysterious Pierce Nace had been published by New English LIbrary, the same company that published most of my books at that time. Puzzled, I went to the relevant horror/fantasy Trash City fansite and there found myself brazenly accused of having been responsible for writing a 1970s horror novel entitled Eat Them Alive, under the pseudonym Pierce Nace.
