Yikes. Dude, assume that I'm not stupid and was actually paying attention when I read the preceding books. For real, I'm so tired of recaps.

It really doesn't. In fact, I ...It doesn't. It really doesn't. In fact, I was so angry about his portrayal of Mara Jade, and every other classic Star Wars character, that I had a hard time finishing the third book. Not to mention it seems he climaxed the book too early, and has a ton of filler at the end to make the book "full length."Annie Carlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11935420044737468543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3455515313352221740.post-58496917108992996372013-04-11T04:57:57.382-07:002013-04-11T04:57:57.382-07:00What's super embarrassing for me is that I use...What's super embarrassing for me is that I used his writing as a kind of template for my fan fiction. Not that I copied it or anything (cuz why bother writing?) but his expression and the way he used words. I thought, as you did, "Hey, first rate!" Ahem. Not so much. Still, hoping it'll pick up as the series progresses.

Poor guy probably ...Heaven forbid a KISSING BOOK!!! Poor guy probably didn't even know what hit him. Just kidding. ^_^ I'm also a bit apprehensive about reading Kevin J. Anderson again. I worshiped him as a girl. I thought his writing was first-rate. As an adult, that changed quite a bit. Talk about a terrible writer!! I'm hoping that doesn't hold true for the Jedi Academy trilogy, or for Young Jedi Knights, but I'm not holding my breath... Maybe there will be lots of kissing? One can only hope... ^_^ Annie Carlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11935420044737468543noreply@blogger.com
