My vote! Tanya Huff's Smoke and Ashes. I wouldn't have believed someone could write a book with vampires, demons, sex-demon-sort-of-stuntwomen, a gay wizard, and a whole lot of other stuff and have it be... ...so utterly boring. *new person waves hullo and runs off cackling* Ooh I like the idea of this site.

The whole Princes Of Amber set I thought was rubbish and should be forced on anyone who is performed a crime. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Chronicles-Amber-Princes-Unicorn-Masterworks/dp/1857987268/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1244118289&sr=8-1 Okay. this is going to set the cat among the pidgeons.

Ron Hubbard pulps? I read <em>Dead Men Kill</em>, and it showed me why they were printed on pulp. Galaxy is re-publishing all the old L. Ron pulps, it seems.
