Could be a slightly dangerous question please don't kill me!

I'll give you that he's a heatless sonofa, but the books are still exciting.

[Guest Majsju]

The books might have been exciting if he had possessed just slightly more writing skills than an illiterate 15 year old...

[the dude]

maj, mod or no, i will not stand for the sullying of the name of illiterate 15 year olds.

 

man. before i just thought his books were pulp. now i kinda hate him for being so stupid.

[Kadere]

You've got women in tight red leather, bloody beatings, Richard cleaving things in two, dragons, psychotic kings, slavery, torture, gruesome battles... it's a teenagers paradise.

[the dude]

it's faster to watch a schwarzenneger movie.

[Kadere]

yeah, Conan the Barbarian rules!

[the dude]

those were pretty sweet movies for the time. i actually just finished reading one of jordan's conan books that he wrote back in the early 80's.

[Kadere]

I haven't read any of those. Are they any good?

[the dude]

the one i found was okay. it really didn't sound like jordan though. not like the Wheel of Time or any of the Fallon books. the vocabulary, the syntax... you could tell he was trying to make it sound like a conan book. and it does. it was still pretty good. really, really light reading, but that's ok sometimes, i suppose.
