Most of these books I hated with the burning fire of a thousand suns. And note well this is 13 books and 4 plays in 3 years, or almost 6 works a year. In retrospect, I can't FATHOM spending almost 6 weeks on each of these books. Which is probably why I hated them with the aforementioned burning fire of a thousand suns. :boring:
