So it's not the story itself so much as the whole EQ canon that you find unappealing? Surprising, because so many (myself included) like his works. True, the characters never develop in any meaningful way, but their very predictability makes each story feel as in you're in the company of old and trusted friends. And because of that unchanging nature of the characters and their relationships, the stories can be read in any order. Is that the very aspect that puts you off?
