Take the Screwtape Letters, mix in some George Carlin and Dave Barry, and throw some Discworld in there, and you've got Sirch. Greek, Norse, Celtic and assorted other mythologies form the core of my studies, along with smatterings of The Golden Bough, The Hero with a Thousand Faces, and some other books written back when succinctness meant nothing. My stories are primarily High Fantasy, but I'll review most anything. Mercilessly. That's about all you (Or your respective country's government agencies) need to know about Sirch. Good night and good luck, that's the way it is, when you look into the abyss, it looks also into you.
