'A phalanx of motorcycles came roaring over the hill from the
west... the noise was like a landslide, or a wing of bombers passing
over. Even knowing the Angels I couldn't quite handle what I was
seeing. It was like Genghis Khan, Morgan's Raiders, the Wild One
and the Rape of Nanking all at once.'

"brilliant" and "outrageous" - and Hunter has a freehold on both of
them' Tom Wolfe
