Title: If this is his best, the others should be burnt
Review: I was told that this was his best. Perhaps this is true, but I will not be wasting my time reading any of the others. "Cult" writers are often over-rated, yet I cannot understand why apparently intelligent people want to read this trash. Most science fantasy is terrible. Even Tolkien was much more enjoyable when I was 9. "The Silmarillion" is shockingly bad at any age. The only joke I laughed at (and not out loud) was the one about Thelonius Monk. Also, I think that Susan's character has definite paedophile connotations, and is generally implausible. Watch some bad TV instead and save your money.
