Time for my $.02. In fact, I was unable to get into To Reign in Hell--it had *athiest* written all over it, and as such, failed to gain my interest or sympathy. Couldn't get into Cowboy Feng, either. Don't know why--I got halfway into it and it just didn't grab me. OTOH, I loved SM&S and *particularly* Gypsy. I read all of Freedom and Necessity, but don't think I would again. Mia
