yeah I'm gonna go ahead and say it...I wasn't impressed. He's a brilliant writer. Let's leave it at that.

Ha ha ha ha!

On a related note, have you noticed that some writers aren't so hot at reading out loud? I got the audiobook of Wild Magic by Tamora Pierce (which is done by Full Cast Audio, so each character is done by a different actor) and the whole time I was thinking, "Man, this narrator is kind of painful to listen to," and then at the end when they did the credits I realized the narrator was Tamora Pierce. Whoops.

I had that experience with Isaac Asimov.

I believe the mystery guy is Brandon's agent, Joshua Bilmes?
