I think part 0.9 will be however many Jerry Cornelius books I make it through (the first is a pretty fast read but I seem to remember they get tougher), and then I'll start on the main event.

I haven't read The Whispering Swarm or any of his other non-Elric and non-Cornelius stuff, so I don't really have any idea what Moorcock reads like when he's writing about non-superhuman people who ever do any regular things.
