I prefer to because I think the characters gain nuance as I read them. They are not like Harry Potter, for instance, where a reader must read all the books and in order or forfeit a full understanding. Same with Madame Bovary, I think. Good series writers seek to fill readers in with enough detail concerning the past to make much clear without giving so much information it becomes boring to series fans. - TedTed Lehmannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12948477139450253563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7211910878271447535.post-23408276815885050822007-12-30T20:16:00.000-05:002007-12-30T20:16:00.000-05:00Duh.

(he's the thinker in our team - I'm all about getting the decision made).<BR/><BR/>Can this book be read as a one-of, or is it part of a series?Mrs. Chilihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09814787474739856911noreply@blogger.com
