Jun. 27th, 2006 10:37 pmI finished reading The Firebrand by Marion Zimmer Bradley.
Like I said before...I'm in no danger of becoming a Mists Of Avalon groupie.
The book was good enough that I wanted to finish it, but not so fabulous as to cause me problems to put it down for hours or a day or two at a time. A little too much blatant female chauvanism there, thanks. Every other page had statements like "Men are useless" and "What good is a son to his mother?"
It's no more okay than when men say such things about women and girls.

As for the Firebrand, yes that was the one about Cassandra of Troy.
