[color=#000000ost_uid0][quoteost_uid0]I've been a fan of Weiss and Hickman's Dragonlance for many years, but - A) these are books I liked a lot more when I was 13 than I do today, and B) do not read ANYTHING Beyond the Chronicles and the Legends. Most of the other books stink.[/quoteost_uid0]

Agreed. Right now I'm struggling through Flint, The King. I've read it once before and I don't remember it being this bad. The characters lack depth, the prose is halfway to being unreadable, the plot is fairly standardly formulaic for a D&D adventure, etc.

Also agreed on Pratchett. He's one of my favourite authors. This is where I insert my usual whine/pout sequence about having the chance to meet him and not finding out about it until a week after the fact.[/colorost_uid0]
