#25 The Great When by Alan Moore - Full Review
Sam and Dan review The Great When, by legendary writer, Alan Moore.
SPOILER ALERT: This episode contains spoilers. We strongly recommend reading this book before listening.
The Great When is the first novel in Alan Moore's planned series titled 'The London Quintet'. We get into the various plot strands that are introduced and tied off throughout. We discuss our main protagonist, Dennis Knuckleyard, along with some of the prominent side characters. And we discuss Alan Moore's incredibly abstract world-building and his depiction of a post World War Two London.
