...made was in the title, which suggests violence and Oriental supernaturalism like that in Ugestu and Gate of Hell.

It seems a bit ludicrous to hope that a new moral framework (if indeed the whole idea has any meaning), will come from the pens of a group of writers whose entire effect comes from the charm...
