THE GREAT WHEN EPIC FANTASY NOVEL TO BE PRODUCED INTO TV SERIES BY ALL CREATURES GREAT AND SMALL, WOLF HALL AND HARDACRES PRODUCERS

   THE GREAT WHEN   
TO BECOME EPIC FANTASY SERIES
Playground has bought adaptation rights to Alan Moore's epic fantasy novel THE GREAT WHEN and will turn it into a TV series. Amidst the smog of post-WWII London emerges Dennis Knuckleyard, a young clerk employed by a second-hand bookshop. One day, on an errand to acquire books for sale, Dennis comes into the possession of a novel that simply does not exist. It is a fictitious book from the Great When, a nightmarish, imaginary realm that is the supernatural counterpart to the city Dennis calls home. Dennis has to return the book or get killed. Soon he finds himself at the center of an explosive series of events, navigating a new realm of criminals, artists and occult figures that puts his life at risk and may alter and endanger both Londons forever. It is the first of five planned novels.

    1. I do not celebrate it myself, but happy Advent to you if you do, I have not even decorated the palace yet LOL and probably will not much. I am waiting for new bookshelves to arrive next week and might put a few Santas around after that if I am in a mood, but probably will not be, December is passing too quickly in my opinion.

    2. I agree, Dezzy. I didn't decorate this year either. It's definitely going by way too fast this year. It's the first since we've lived here that I just didn't have the energy. Wasn't going to do Halloween either, but Jason and Allison pulled the decorations from the attic and did most putting those up before I could stop them. After I packed those away, Jason asked if I wanted him to pull down the Christmas and I said hell no. I wasn't spending a day to put it all up just to take it all down again in a few weeks. I bought my 3 foot blue spruce tree, slapped a santa hat on a toy dinosaur for the tree topper, then called that done as far as decorations this year. I feel like spring is going to be here in the blink of an eye with how fast the days are going by lately.

    3. The good news is that they say 2025 should be a nice year and bring happiness and major positive changes to most zodiac signs.

    5. Yes, and Trump is already making peace in Ukraine tonight even before becoming a president, it is as like Bidden does not even exist anymore LOL People also took over power in Syria last night, hope we are next here.

    6. I'm still nervous about his 4 year term, but given there were no better options, it's a wait and see with me on what he's going to do this round. I am not thrilled about the tariffs because I will have to raise my prices as will many other small business owners who have to source their materials outside of the US, but we definitely did better under his leadership the first time he took office, I am going to be cautiously optimistic on the future of our business going forward.

    7. Well it was the best four years in a very long time economically speaking. Hope he brings world peace as he promised. And hope he prosecutes Joe and others, although he said he would not, but his people might LOL Would be lovely to see Oprah, Nancy Pelosy, Kamala and Biden in jail.

    8. Oh, and that drug dealing felon Jay Z that is finally getting his due. What a disgrace for Obama to be running around with him during his presidency. I hope with all my heart he is convicted along with P Diddy.

      I'd love to see Biden added to the list as well. I feel like he's determined to keep effing over the US citizens until he's out of the office. Pardoning his horrid son was the icing on the cake, but he keeps throwing money around to other countries while we are all struggling here at home. Let's send Africa a billion dollars! Ukraine, you want $800 million? Sure! You would think the killing of the insurance CEO would have been an eye opener to the government that we're all getting fed up not getting the basics in life. The money we so callously give away or spend on ignorant pet projects could fund universal health care, but no. They just keep taxing us to death and giving nothing back in return. We definitely need another Tea Party Revolution here.

    9. Oh, you should see how they defend his decision to pardon his criminal brat over at liberal sites, it is hilarious. Imagine if Trumpster did it? And now Trumpster will do the same and pardon his rioters LOL Hope he pardons the one who stole Nancy's chair from her office LOL

      Delete
    10. And they'll have no right to bitch about his pardons now. Definitely pardon the chair thief! LMAO!

      Delete
    11. The chair thief deserves a monument LOL

  2. I'm up in the air on this one. I'll wait to pass judgement until you give us a little more down the road.
