East Of Ealing



The third book in the legendary Brentford trilogy

'Ahead, where once had been only bombsite land, the Lateinos and Romiith building rose above Brentford. Within its cruel and jagged shadow, magnolias wilted in their window boxes and synthetic Gold Top became doorstep cheese...'

Something sinister is happening east of Ealing. The prophecies of The Book of Revelation are being fulfilled.

Lateinos & Romiith, a vast financial network, is changing all the rules with a plan to bar-code every living punter and dispense with old-fashioned money. A diabolical scheme, which would not only end civilisation as we know it, but seriously interfere with drinking habits at the Flying Swan.

Can Armageddon, Apocalypse and other inconveniences of the modern age be stopped by the humble likes of Pooley and Omally, even with the help of Professor Slocombe and the time-warped Sherlock Holmes of Baker Street...?

Praise for East Of Ealing

'Robert Rankin is a deep-down humorist, one of the rare guys who can always make me laugh'

Terry Pratchett

Everybody should read at least one Robert Rankin in their life

Daily Express

This is Rankin at his comic best. He does for England what Spike Milligan does for Ireland. There can be no higher praise.
