I tend to like Farmer's single works over his series. The first Riverworld
was intriguing, but it quickly started to drag.  The Lovers is an
groundbreaking treatment of sex in SF.  (as is A Woman a Day, Image of the
Beast and A Feast Unknown).  And The Unreasoning Mask must be entered into
the "my-alien-artifact-is-infinitely-more-complex-than-your-alien-artifact"
contest.   A favorite topic is telling the "true" story behind someone
else's novel.  (Oz, Tarzan, Verne, Doc Savage, Moby Dick, Kilgore Trout,
and Sherlock Holmes).
