It seems, to my probably jaundiced view, most of the new books offered free or for cents, to be honest.........
I mostly never even finish the blurb/precis - I find I know the basic plot .........
(But, of course, I make no judgement on any particular author's work.......)
Pro'bly my narrow horizons as to quality and originality - I mean, how many clone wizarding/Templar/cop with family-drugs-alchohol-money problems/vampire/ slasher etc... "original" works can there be in the fevered brains of new writers......
The perfect example - how many ancient codex/riddle versions exist of the awful Da Vinci coddle ?
