An odd coincidence that I forgot to mention - Mr. Jackson has stated that one of his inspirations for Ogre was Keith Laumer's "The Last Command". This story was found in a book called "Tales of Time & Space". I actually had this book as a kid! Although I don't remember reading The Last Command specifically, I'm sure I must have. I recently got a used copy from Amazon for $5.00. It still had a price tag from Woolco - $0.96. Having this book again was like meeting an old friend after many years.
