Amazing. I have every book he has written. Love his work.

 <<Besides, another  successful fantasy author reported to me that he treated 
her in a patronizing,  male-chauvinistic manner and that's just really put me 
off the man. >>

Amazing that a person's character would affect judgment regarding his work.

'niceties' of their current culture. Queen Elizabeth (my heroine) and 
Alexander the Great (my idol), Thomas Jefferson (my hero) and General Patten 
(my father figure) immediately come to mind).
