Sorry, my statements of my taste as objective facts were supposed to
be a joke, and I'm certain that Michael West's comment was too.
You can change what I said to "I like these books better than LoL."
And while I'm at it, I like _Lord of Light_ better than _Immortal/
Conrad_.  I may have to agree with Johne about liking "He Who Shapes"
better than the novel version, _The Dream Master_, though.
