There is a long review of the Tempers of Hazard selection in Angel
Exhaust 11. Review is by John Wilkinson who makes good distinctions
between highly derivative & stronger works by the poet. He makes a
claim for major poet status in a clear-headed fashion. When I first got
Internet access, the discovery of this article was one of a few happy
events which brought me back into this fold. (Thanks John, hope you're
not trying to keep this one hidden in public!) There are some sections
of various works quoted in the article.
The article is on-line at:

Welcome back, Nate.
Pete.
ps can also help spread the word since Nate found me a copy of tempers in
a Tronna store longtemps back.
