The bloke from Do Androids Dream of Electronic Sheep- the main character- brain has gone blank! (If you haven't read the book- Bladerunner, movie)

or Merriman from the Dark is Rising Sequence. What about Frankenstein's Monster?

Rick Deckard - far more rounded and angst-ridden in the book - would definitely fit.

(While I like the second version of "Blasde-Runner", I actually also quite like the original voice-over version, which everyone else seems to hate. I haven't yet managed to see the 3rd so-called final edit, but will probably try to watch all three back to back.)

I would like to see Big Ears as a Jurisfiction agent. And Sally. Spot's mother.

So do I, wasn't aware that there was a 3rd version out.

As too who I'd vote in ....... Lady Sharrow from Iain M Banks Against a Dark Background, quite rounded and grown up up by the end.

I think perhaps I have seen all versions except the first with the voice over? didn't know about that one. I don't like voice overs- I'd choose subtitles evertyime. Even if they are humourous like on Jackie Chan movies ^_^

James Bond and Alan Rider. *evil chuckle*

I've only seen the version without the narrator. I'm told it's much better than the version with.

I suppose having Jaws as an agent would be asking too much, what with those big metal teeth of his, he'd find it hard to understand.

I remember getting blank looks from my parents as a kid when I asked why they didn't rust...

No need for Deckard. Jasper has already got Gully Foyle to police science fiction. Which is a great choice. I love Alfred Bester's "Stars My Destination," (or "Tiger, Tiger" in the UK).

Jaws from James Bond? Wasn't he only in the movies? It's been so long since I read Ian Fleming. I don't recall Jaws being in there. Oddjob yes... Dr. No .... definitely. Jasper does need a Jurisfiction agent for adventure fiction.

Who should police mystery/detective? Miss Marple?

And I like your idea of Frankenstein for horror fic. Some quirky Anne Rice character would be good too. Lasher?

Hey science fiction takes a lot of covering. Space is big, remember!

Fredegar Bolger from LOTR: I mean he's doing nothing for most of the book, but he's there at the start and end. May as well get him doing something.

Mystery/ detective? Well would the hard bitten PI come into this? I'm sure we have plenty of spare detectives hanging about.

Horror: whatever the chief hit squad are, their quarter master should be Leland Gaunt, creepy shopkeeper from Needful Things

Ah you've gotthe wrong end of the stick there. The voice over was done by Harrison Ford(no relation) as the studio thought the film was a bit bleak without it and needed some kind of cheeryness in it.

For mystery/detective - Elvis Cole & Joe Pike. Or Harry Bosch.

Harry Bosch! Good pick. He could handle the hardboiled detective fiction. Now what about the British drawing room murder mystery stuff....Adam Dalgliesh?

Richard Jury.

Dairine from the Young Wizards series. Or Chrestomanci. (I am aware these would not be possible due to copyright)

We've seen Quasimodo and Captain Nemo, so presumably there must be someone to police French literature that's been translated into English.

Javert from Les Miserables is the obvious choice. :P

If you are going into Diana Wynne Jones, I'd reccommend Derk from The dark lord of Derkolm or perhaps Howl- now he'd be good! (Howl's moving castle, the novel not the animation!!!!) He was meant to be a complete and total Coward!!

She might agree, she is friends with Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett- she has hinted at some of Terry's Characters before. A t-shirt in Deep Secret that says Oook!

Oook? I got one like that from Nullus Anxietas!

John Rebus would make a great Jurisfiction agent for Scottish detective literature and Louie Welch for the Welsh sub genre. And how about Saruman for mystery/horror as all we ever see is his eye!
