I can't remember if I like Anthony or not; I'm an Asimov man, thru & thru.

Okay, true, I'll give you that one. But people should at *least* be able to recognize when what they are reading is crap and put it down, right?

I can't remember if I like Anthony or not;

You don't , trust me.

Rather long winded at best. Stick to the authors that came up with the pulps and you can't go wrong. Asimov is good. Alan Dean Foster=better. Bradbury= better still (but forget about the Martian stuff)l

Eh, I think Bradbury's Martian stuff is fine.

It's about puzzles.

And the undead?! WHERE'S THE UNDEAD, BRUEC?

In the last 25% of the book.

I'm sorry, did you think I was refering to you? I guess you're right it could appear that this was directed at you, but sadly no, you're outright refusal to read through something due to it's lack of maturity wasn't what I was refering to.

I've actually never had anyone (aside from my daughter's mom, who did like Eddings well enough we named our daughter after one of his characters (Insert patheticness here) ) like anything I recomended. So it wasn't something aimed at anyone in particular, just a broad generalization. Or a generalization about broads. I can never remember.
