Note
Peake Studies is a periodical that provides an independent forum for criticism and debate for all those interested in Mervyn Peake's life and work as an artist, novelist, poet, and illustrator.
It is not actually an on-line periodical, more an introduction to the real periodical, which is available on subscription.

For other things related to Mervyn Peake and Gormenghast:
In case you do not know, Michael Moorcock is a long-time admirer of Mervyn Peake, and did much to promote Peake's work. He has also contributed to this site, so adding a link back to his own site seems the least I can do in return!
Also, pay a visit to Susie Green's site, where she has some 3D graphics (including a downloadable animation) based on Gormenghast.
Those of you who have visited this site (and this page) before might be aware that I originally included the address of the Mervyn Peake Society. Sadly, this society has now ceased to be, so the address has been removed.
