Thanks for posting Memnoch!
I don't think your being harsh.
This is a problem I hate finding with series that have varying authors
or in books that are a part of a larger universe.
...When you love a series, the first interpretation of it is fantastic
and you love it and then someone who just does not have the skill
comes along and destroys it...damaging your love for the series in the
process!!! It's Bogus!!!
For you this is made even harder because of the fact that the
Forgotten Realms creator is the offending culprit! What cruelty!
But would this train of thought mean that it is best when only
one author dedicates his life to the production...Salvatore pumping out
Realms until he dies? Obviously this can't be done with the Realms
where the universe is owned? Or is it? I don't know how it works in
a series like DnD books or the Star Wars books. Greenwood doesn't own
the rights does he?
The fresh brains writing the new stories is vital in series IMHO
and unfortunatly the price we have to pay for loving the universe
is that we must also hate it sometimes too.
