Jo Walton Quotes

I Did Not Buy A Book Called Lord Foul's Bane By Stephen Donaldson, Which Has The Temerity To Compare Itself, On The Front Cover, To 'Tolkien At His Best.' The Back Cover Attributes The Quote To The Washington Post, A Newspaper Whose Quotations Will Always Damn A Book For Me From Now On. How Dare They? And How Dare The Publishers? It Isn't A Comparison Anyone Could Make, Except To Say 'Compared To Tolkien At His Best, This Is Dross.' I Mean You Could Say That Even About Really Brilliant Books Like A Wizard Of Earthsea. I Expect Lord Foul's Bane (horrible Title, Sounds Like A Conan Book) Is More Like Tolkien At His Worst, Which Would Be The Beginning Of The Simarillion.
The Thing About Tolkien, About The Lord Of The Rings, Is That It's Perfect.
