Re: Harry Harrison 'The Official Website'


There's what might be considered a controversial interview at:

http://www.iol.ie/~carrollm/hh/n04.htm Click on the ‘Interview with Harry Harrison’.

Harrison claims the last three Saint novels prior to Vendetta were ghosted: surely he is mistaken?

Also Harrison believes Charteris’ only input into the novel was an unnecessary piece about driving to a restaurant; this differs from Burl Barer’s understanding.

He also states that Leslie Charteris hated Italy, even though he had never been there, which surprised me.

Taken as a whole, Harry Harrison view of Leslie Charteris appears a little negative, he even gloats about a review, which claims Vendetta as the only Saint novel with a plot: but didn’t the initial plot come from Charteris anyway?
