I guess as long as this is just opinion, I think nobody has the slightest business reading this “sci-fi”,, fantasy, “rings” silliness,,,UNTIL they have read every written word of Mark Twain, Anton Chekhov, and Winston Churchill.
I could never get into Mark Twain’s stuff. I know he was a pioneer in his style and all that, but I don’t like dialect writing. I love Winston Churchill, though.
