I was right!
Jul. 13th, 2004 02:26 pmIn my review of Alex Irvine's One King, One Soldier I mentioned that Tim Powers had to have been something of an influence.
According to an interview posted by Del Rey:
AI:I’ve read all of Tim’s books and enjoyed them. For the idea of taking gaps in history and backfilling them in interesting ways without contradicting the historical record, I’m indebted to him, and Last Call certainly rang some cool new changes on the Arthur story. I think our approaches to the world–insofar as you can infer this from reading someone’s books–are very different, though.
