I do, however, have certain minimum standards. I admit that I am rather high on the picky scale when it comes to grammar and word use. I abhor the repetition of the same word–especially one that is descriptive or in some other way easily variable–and T.G. did this almost constantly. His word choice in general was also weak…there were countless times that I encountered adjectives that seemed inappropriate and flat.

Normally, I would be particularly frustrated by the above, as bad writing would distract me from the plot…but in this case, I found the characters to be very obvious and two-dimensional…the only one that really had any depth to speak of was Mistress Denna. Everyone else was catch-phrases and signature moves. They felt like cardboard game-pieces moving across a map to rolls of of a die.

I understand that some people really do enjoy this series, but as far as I am concerned, I find nothing to recommend it.

TO put it in perspective, I don’t think “Die Hard” is probably a cinematic masterpiece, it’s chock full of generic action scenes and one-liners. But it’s super fun, enjoyable and I’ll keep going back to watch it again. Make sense?

PS: it also gains a bit more pacing and creativity as you go on.

I can only surmise that you are not aware of the vital difference between quality books and holes in the ground….
