Speaking of giving a good dressing down, Orson Scott Card gives Steve Berry quite the spanking.
Let me tell you about an audiobook that I hated.
I didn’t hate it because it was badly written — it was mediocre in the way that mediocre thrillers usually are, and that means it would ordinarily have been tolerable.
No, the reason I stopped listening to Steve Berry’s The Alexandria Link is that this book is evil.
I don’t mean it’s about evil. I don’t even mean that it is evil-porn, like those horror books whose authors are pervertedly devoted to thinking up cool ways to torture and kill people.
I mean that this book, to the degree that it is read by people ignorant of history (i.e., practically everybody), will move us closer to a future in which our society permits or even approves of the murder of Jews and the destruction of the state of Israel.
Yet another great find on LGF, which is quickly becoming one of the most essential blogs around.
