Yes, he's a clearly step above Goodkind or Dan Brown. Tom Send a noteboard - 08/11/2011 05:54:24 PM
His novels are entertaining. Of course, my ideas about genre fiction are well-known here.

On a side note, even having read over 600 pages in Der Zauberberg, I'm still almost 400 pages from the end. It's a bit frustrating. I need to pick shorter books for a while.

ἡ δὲ κἀκ τριῶν τρυπημάτων ἐργαζομένη ἐνεκάλει τῇ φύσει, δυσφορουμένη, ὅτι δὴ μὴ καὶ τοὺς τιτθοὺς αὐτῇ εὐρύτερον ἢ νῦν εἰσι τρυπώη, ὅπως καὶ ἄλλην ἐνταῦθα μίξιν ἐπιτεχνᾶσθαι δυνατὴ εἴη. – Procopius

It might be hit and miss, but the hits would be worth it, if you ask me. Legolas - 09/11/2011 08:37:16 PM 526 Views

I'm not clear if you're trying to reference Dan Quayle or if you're really a complete moron. Tom - 14/11/2011 04:59:41 AM 513 Views
