Keep and expand. If you want to ban stubs you need to change policy. The fact this is a) a book by a major UK author and b) is published by a major publisher, qualify it for existence. Content issues are a different matter. 23skidoo (talk) 21:49, 25 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
It was a nice enough book, but I'm not finding much in the way of reviews that establish its notability. Merge (or if you insist, redirect) to Tom Holt as part of his bibliography. —Quasirandom (talk) 22:30, 25 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - Holt is notable enough in his field of comic novels to warrant an article about this side step in his career (into science fiction). He is one of comedies most well read and followed authors. At least in the UK. :: Kevinalewis : (Talk Page)/(Desk)09:09, 26 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - don't forget that WP:BK key criteria is an inclusive list ie. if one applies the article is automatically deemed notable, the opposite only "suggests" that the novel might not be notable. Anyway the author's notability should be sufficient in this case. :: Kevinalewis : (Talk Page)/(Desk)16:57, 26 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep and expand. Holt's an extremely popular author in his field, and his work (this one in particular) fits well into a particular SF tradition of humanizing the world, so it's interesting in itself. Eithin (talk) 13:15, 1 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
