R+D, Santa Monica Lines: 12 Summary: One interesting point about David McDaniel's Prisoner book is the first sentence, "Drake woke." Dave wrote that knowing that Ace Books was going to be sending the manuscript to McGoohan for approval, in order to satisfy his own curiosity as to whether McGoohan would permit that explicit tie in in the official canon between "Secret Agent" and "The Prisoner." It got published, so apparently.... Incidentally, if anyone's interested in some of the stranger points of McDaniel's U.N.C.L.E. (and Hierarchy) stuff, mention it. I was one of his best friends for the last ten years of his life. --Lee Gold
