Never Be Glad That Another

Many Fantasy Novels - 'lord Of The Rings', For Instance, Or 'lavondyss' By Robert Holdstock - Are Beautifully Written. Geoff Ryman's 'the Child Garden' Is Exquisite And Utterly Beguiling. Mervyn Peake's 'gormenghast' Trilogy Is An Astonishing Piece Of Multi-faceted Storytelling. So Quality Of Writing Does Not Condemn The Genre.

This Is The Real Magic Of Fantasy Fiction: It Can Feed Souls And Change Lives.

I May Be Stupid, As You Say, To Believe In Honour And Friendship And Loyalty Without Price. But These Are Virtues To Be Cherished, For Without Them We Are No More Than Beasts Roaming The Land.

In My Experience All Women Deserve Someone Better.

All Beauty Is Sad. [...] For It Fades.
