Like I said, I was addressing a split audience when I wrote it Larry Send a noteboard - 08/11/2011 06:19:44 PM
It was also written as a retort of sorts to some discussions on Westeros, where I also copy/pasted this review, thus some references to who may love and who may find it more of the same. Doesn't help when I write it after reviewing the latest Eco ;)


It was just that your language was very couched, and gave the feel that you were saying, "For those of you who might enjoy that type sort of story, you'll probably enjoy this one."

:P


Some will be surprised that I even read the thing, knowing what I've been reading/reviewing lately :P

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 586 Views
