Not a single sympathetic character (and barely any characterization worth the name), a paucity of imagination, no pace, no tension, and a sense of weeks wasted once I'd finished. I put my copies in the bin rather than inflict them on anyone else.\"\n\nNow, I can understand \"I didn't like it,\" \"I was bored reading it,\" etc, but sweet baby Jesus, what kind of crap is this joker reading that informs an opinion like that? I hate the works of all kinds of writers, many of them well regarded, but I'm grown up and well read enough to understand that it's a disconnect between myself and the artist's vision, not their lack of skill as a writer. In short, what a tool.\n\nDon\n\nDoggerel\nwww.don-doggett.blogspot.com"
