As a young man, I loved and found inspiration in the works of Ayn Rand. Life, like it sometimes does, revised my points of view and caused me to search for the "rest of the story." Likewise, my wife, who was far more experienced than I as a reader, introduced me to British classics plus Tolkien, Pratchett, and others (I found Tom Clancy on my own;<). Through it all, I've developed a taste for third person, multi-thread adventures that use satire to expose the pitfalls of the human psyche. |
