There's a film version of The Illustrated Man, but only "The Veld" stuck in my mind. But I agree that Bradbury is an atmospheric writer whose works would go well with Mike's music.

Maybe even my own favourite Sci-Fi book "The Martian Chronicles" also by Ray Bradbury.

Now that this thought has been implanted, and given that Mars is 4th planet from the sun, I know that if the cover of TB4 - if/when it is released - has any red whatsoever on its cover I'll have The Martian Chronicles in mind.

a case of "the meek will inherit Middle-Earth"!

Off topic for a moment - I have often wondered how the 'meek' would react if they inherited the earth, that is, if meekness is a passive attitude. Would it would be like - "Er, thank you very much for the earth - er, well what do we do with it now?"      :/

well, consider meek in its original meaning "gentle or mild of temper; forbearing under injury or annoyance; humble, unassuming"
rather momre positive as an inheritor, don't you think? meek as a wishy-washy pushover is ca1300. :cool:
