Makes sense. Why wouldn't there be a lot of horror in the biggest, most dangerous environment known?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12380553.post-16533144169466720882011-09-13T20:46:16.831-04:002011-09-13T20:46:16.831-04:00Hi everyone,

The Odyssey is also one of my favorite stories, and "Guardian of Piri" is really fascinating as a technological rendering of that ancient tale. I think you'd enjoy the episode...<br /><br />Thank you anonymous, glad you enjoyed it.<br /><br />SGB: Thank you for your kind words about my post, and also about my first book, Exploring Space:1999. That book is like a child to me, so I always love to hear that people enjoyed it.<br /><br />I also watched Space:1999 on its first run...and I've never been the same. I always love to champion the show, and introduce it to new audiences too.<br /><br />All my best to all!<br /><br />JohnJohn Kenneth Muirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15629979615332893780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12380553.post-7752226184615425112011-09-13T14:38:22.925-04:002011-09-13T14:38:22.925-04:00John,

I purchased your book EXPLORING SPACE:1999 over a decade ago and must praise that too.<br /><br />SGBAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12380553.post-72387571728096076172011-09-13T13:55:26.484-04:002011-09-13T13:55:26.484-04:00Another excellent post, John.

Being that The Odyssey and the character of Odysseus is one of my all-time favorite stories from my youth, I need to catch 'The Guardian of Piri'. Many thanks.le0pard13https://www.blogger.com/profile/09421175808461787862noreply@blogger.com
