This book contains the texts of Ah Pook Is Here, The Book of Breeething, and Electronic Revolution. Ah Pook Is Here was originally planned as an early form of graphic novel, with illustrations by Malcolm Mc Neill, but, alas, this novel was never published in its intended form of collaboration. The artwork that was created for the text can be found published in Malcolm Mc Neill's The Lost Art of Ah Pook Is Here, published by Fantagraphics Books (Seattle, WA.).
