Wrath of the Fanglord was masterminded by the very wonderful Geri Sullivan to mark Dave Langford's appearance at Minicon 33 (1998) as fan guest of honour. It collects a number of favourite articles by other writers -- plus a few pieces of artwork -- published by Langford in the course of twenty-odd years of frenetic fanzine activity.
