Hi all,
Huh? That's a total hoot! Doesn't his editor do the job for which she
is paid? Good gumbity!

Hi Folks,
I'm submitting a BSO tomorrow of a book I just finished reading. The
book is Runelords: The Sum of All Men, the first book in the Runelords
fantasy series by David Farland. I am series captain for this eight
book, (so far) series.
It's actually a good book. Along with the conventional Fantasy
elements, the author adds some imaginative ideas of his own and
explores them in depth. The book also has greater moral complexity than
a lot of Fantasy out there.
But in my opinion, the writing could be better. Here is perhaps one of
the best examples that might give some of you a chuckle:
By evening the clouds blew out of the region altogether, and warmer air
now suffused the night, almost as if it were any other afternoon in
late summer.
