And those were your best arguments?

(Apologies to OverHaze - I've just got really tired of JSWolf's obsession with this.)
I've gotten tired of others saying to start anywhere. It's OK to spoil the series. I did like the first two books. That's why I continued on.

Most people who have said not to start from the beginning did so and continued on. So if they can get past what they call as not good, why do they think others won't be able to?
