Metatemporal Detective:

Robert M. Tilendis calls Michael Moorcock's The Metatemporal Detectivea "series of delightful burlesques of Conan Doyle, noir detective fiction, the American Western (with special mention for the Masked Buckaroo, who rapidly became one of my favorite characters), spy thrillers, and of Moorcock himself" in a piece for Green Man Review.

His conclusion: "These are light fare compared to the bulk of Moorcock's work, although the connections are certainly there for those who are concerned with such things. They are, however, for those who appreciate things like Flash Gordon, a lot of fun."
