I read them, I criticize them. Fan is a loaded word. Critic is a better word. Would that word be better, if I said I liked to write about them from a psychoanalytic perspective? Because there are some knotty problems there.
And I came here originally to ask a balancing opinion for a critical opinion of the Dresden novels, in order to be fair. I didn't come here and say, "Oh, boy, never gonna read THOSE suckers."
I said I had heard they might be problematic and what did Dmitri think of those problems.
And I did think that maybe the Dresden books and their problems would take up too much time if they weren't worth the effort, but I was troubling to get a second opinion.
