True story. Way back in the late 70's, during the Brother's Hildenbrant book illustrations craze, I picked up a trade paper that had illustrations that looked like their style with a blurb "In the tradition of Tolkien", so naturally being a big Tolkien fan and not so cagey teenager, I bought it. When I got it home, it turned out to be a pretty nasty porn book. After about 20 pages of it, I tossed in in my garbage can. It was that bad. I was steamed. My mother pulled it out of the garbage can, thought it looked nice, so she put it in the bookcase of the living room. She had it there for about 10 years. I snickered every time I went into the living room and saw it. (of course I didn't tell her, I did say I was a teenager, didn't I?)
