Okay,finished "The lair of the whit worm" yesterday-the thing was realy good, though it had theese faults to me-

One: speaking of the most impossible normally

Two: sugesting a horrid solution, far too fantastical for rational (read:skeptical) belief in what chapter 8 of 28

Three:romance and somewhat being soap operatic

Four:stylistic weirdness of speech in certain parts

However,the last chapter realy was a change for the better and it made the whole book worth it,when combined with all the good moments throughout

What do you think?

Also,has anyone here read Stoker's fantastical "The invisible giant"?Its quite a good litle tale.

Also-im planing to read "Jewel of the seven stars"-without spoiling,whats your opinion on it ?
