By the way, I don't think LB's failure to contribute what he apparently promised is the reason this book is as lame as it is. I think the blame rests with the author and publisher: the author for not making the effort to actually analyse or respond to the work; and the publisher for not grasping that if you're going to pitch a series at geeks, then you've got to sacrifice sales to the casual fan.

It's just so frustrating.
