Kemper now:
As I was typing the above, it originally was The Da Vinci Code!
While Da Vinci was an easier read than Shadow, it was painfully
predictable.  I kept thinking it would get better, the premise had
such potential but the author wrote as though his audience was stupid.
 As for Shadow, I threw it across the room when I was done.  I think I
was more mad at myself than the book.  I learned than that you don't
have to finish a book if you don't like it.  Also, that anybody with
pen and paper could be published.

Similarly, Cool World was the movie I learned I could walk out on.

Kemper now:
And as an act of vengeance.

Kemper now:
Recommending the Dark Horse comic "Legacy" that is a Star Wars story
taking place 100 or so years after Return, but only if you come to it
easily.  No need to hunt it.
