Funny, I got out of King because of his endless drivel about non story relayed bollocks!

SK ain't got nothin' on Victor Hugo. One of the most exciting bits of "Les Misérables" (Jean Valjean escaping through the sewers with his adopted daughter's injured boyfriend on his shoulders), and he throws in a 30 page essay on the history of the sewers of Paris!!
Hugo's description of the battle of Waterloo can almost be considered a historical source, it is so well detailed. Just reminds you that he was paid by the word, not the book!! :lol :lol
