A Rock'n'Roll James Joyce?
That's what some obscure British critic said about the writing of Arthur Byron Cover, whose stories about immortal, all-powerful god-like men and women hamstrung by the archetypes they impersonate would have been hailed by millions... if they'd only read them.
Initially edited by Harlan Ellison and published in a series of first novels, Autumn Angels was nominated for a Nebula Award and quickly established Cover as one of the most imaginative writers in the genre.

Arthur Byron Cover (born 1950) is a science fiction author.
Arthur Byron Cover's first novel, Autumn Angels, was the second of Harlan Ellison's Discovery Series of new authors for Pyramid Books, and was nominated for a Nebula Award. The novel has been described as "a stylistic cross-breed of Ellison and Vonnegut, and as such both predates and bests Douglas Adams in creating a comic, literary fantasy."
