  ‘If the disc is a fake and Jovil couldn’t be in two places at once,’ said Rex. ‘Doesn’t this mean that all this . . .’ Christeen smiled up at him. She was the most beautiful woman who had ever lived. ‘Oh, nothing,’ said Rex.

  ‘Kiss me, you fool,’ said God’s only daughter.

  ‘I can’t eat this,’ came the voice of Deathblade Eric. ‘This fellow’s got green blood and he smells like stale cabbage.’

  ‘So he does,’ Rambo agreed. ‘Now there’s a thing.’

  ‘And what about me?’ Gloria asked.

  ‘Damned if I know dear.’ Ms Vrillium admired herself in the mirror. ‘I expect we’ll find out in the sequel. All this is really far too good to be true.’

  And it was.
