Title: learn about the author before reading his work
Product review: I recommend anyone new to Harlon Ellison to learn about the author as a person before reading his work. He's a pompous, overbearing, egotistical little man (literally) who thinks he is better than everyone else in the world, and if you don't worship him then he hates you. Read a few pages of his work to see this attitude reflected completely in his bloated writing style. You can do this with Amazon's "first page" feature or just google him to see his stuff before buying it. You'll save yourself some money.
