His fiction writing is good. Especially if you stick to stuff he wrote when he
was younger and to stuff that ISN'T part 5 of a 19 part series.
He talks about stuff that most of us embrace, tolerance, self reliance, growth
as an individual, and lots of other great themes.
But the problem is, as Aerie says... his non fiction is wonky. Or just whacked.
Not making too big a deal of it, I just thought it was an interesting ref for
those that didn't/hadn't seen it...
