I've not read any other author who uses 10 words where 2-3 would suffice, and the number of times he repeats passages almost word for word just wears one down. I still have two more books to go in the series because I want to see how it ends, but the only other series I have read that I felt this bad about losing so much time on would be Stephen R. Donaldson's Thomas Covenant series. At least Donaldson is a good writer.


In my opinion, the Gor novels are some of the most distasteful and horribly written fantasy novels I've ever encountered.

I'm happy that you enjoy them, though.
