β¦ Synopsis
βIn The General Zapped an Angel Howard Fast does what is usual for him and unusual for anyone else. He combines fiction and fable, frightfulness and fun. He also blends (if I may be allowed to continue the alliteration) fact and fantasy, but with this difference: his fantasies have a meaningful, even a moral, purpose. He manages, somehow, to instruct and entertain in the same breath.
βFast has always been a superb storyteller; in his new book he is as imaginative and as boldly inventive as ever. I canβt think of a current book that is better reading and, whatβs more important, rereading.β
