Query: Ridiculous tripe

If you are looking for intelligent, well-written fantasy, try something else...anything else. Being big fantasy fans, my husband and I picked up the audio version for a 20+ hour car trip. After a dubious start, he insisted that we listen to the first 3 CD's "in case it got better." It did not.I was looking forward to strong female roles that I imagined a Dragon Mistress to be. Instead, the lead female is whiney, insipid, and petty. The male roles are almost as lifeless and predictable.Mix in some stupid, pre-adolescent erotica and boring, seemingly unending, descriptive romanticism, and you have the whole package.I have never been so disappointed in a $45 bookstore trip.Robin Hobb and Ursula LeGuin have nothing to fear here.
