You gave that comment way more of a serious and thoughtful response than it deserved.  But good job on your part.

One small correction:  Brandon wrote 9 novels, not just 9 stories.

I think he is a good story writer, but I think he needs to burn his Thesaurus and fire his editor.

I mean honestly, if someones voice "sounded like rustling pines and a gurgling brook"  you wouldn't understand a damn thing they said. >>

I once had a conversation of this nature. I asked about the meaning of life and the response I got was:

"Gurgle gurgle rustle gurgle rustle rustle."

It all seems so simple now...

I must admit, life is VERY  simple when you talk in meaningless sounds.
