Very ture sir sparkhawk, but unlike with the dreamers, his previous four sets of books had a well structured story, intelligent and fun dialogue and endings that could be enjoyed and understood. With The Dreamers the whole time I was reading it was as if while he was writing it he said, **** it, I can away with this, and he couldn't.
I will admit there were some good concepts in it, but the story as a whole was uneventful, a waste of money and frankly I think he should hang his head in shame.
As to you Soggyfox, I doubt very much he'll write any more books
he's 76 years old and with his wife dying at the beginning of the year he probably has no motivation or inspiration left to write with. I'm afraid to say that the Dreamers was an unuspectacular and unfortunately pathetic end to the career of a great writer.
