I actually find myself looking forward, in a really sick way, to their next flailing bout of stupidity.
How sad is that?

I will read it if someone pays me.
Their title clearly indicates a lack of understanding FH's themes, especially since they're about Paul, Jessica and Irulan. They had heroic moments but I don't really think of them as heroes, they did what they had to do. Survivors do terrible things. Besides, I would never imagine that FH would title a book "Heroes".

If you want to write it, I'll sign you up for Hoary Tales. (Or was that Whorey Tails...I keep forgetting.)

Every time they drop drawers and squirt out another steaming pile, I'll be there to bite their pockmarked backsides.
It's a nasty job, but somebody has to do it.

Hehe, and you do it so well chigger!
I think I'm out too; I'm not sure how much of my time I can waste on reading the shit they keep pumping out....

But since Paul is going through so many "re-writes," and is not an attempt to wrap up all kinds of crazy shit, I'm sure its going to have a completely different feel to it.

True, but why spend money on it, when I can buy something much more fulfilling, like a history textbook?

If you go the used route then at least you're supporting a local bookstore or some guy who needs a couple of bucks for drinks that weekend. I'm in full agreement that the HLP does not deserve one more cent from us.

Hahaha, I get a good laugh at the frequency with which certain items appear in the bargin bins or at after-market stores. It's so often the best benchmark to gauge a truly shit product

"History textbook" was supposed to queue up an image of an incredibly boring and poorly written book...but I guess no one got that?
It's not that I don't want to spend money on it, it's that I don't want to take in that much shit. I'll become septic, I imagine.
