Reception

[edit]

Dave Langford reviewed A Book of Numbers for White Dwarf #39, and stated that "So you find the legend of the Seven Sleepers of Ephesus amid 12 pages of entries for mystical 7; under 90 is Theodore Sturgeon's famous law '90% of everything is rubbish'; the 159 entry records the 159 SF/fantasy titles hacked out in 13 years by notorious Lionel Fanthorpe; and so on. Enormous fun."[1]
