Well, I have always liked it. It's rather difficult to get hold of, in my
experience, but worth it.

UA-wise, there is plenty there. Sapphire, Steel and the other elemental
agents deal with supernatural type problems the way that our friend Le Comte
might well. A Comte based on Steel would probably work very well indeed.

The stories could probably be easily slotted into a UA game too, they mainly
deal with problems of time, but this could be explained in many ways in UA
(demons recreating parts of their lives would be a way to run a couple of
the stories).
