ROBUST discussion

Audacity allows you to be at ease with your inadequacy, safe in the knowledge that while things may not be perfect, they are at least under way. -- Robert Genn

So my next Opus will be:

Underwater Rabbi and Gidget go Intergalactic

What?

It's been done? Aw...

Not quite the same thing, but I've seen, several times over the week, an ad for an PNR that indicates that the protagonist is a viking (well born that way at least), vampire, angel, and NAVY Seal.

I have no idea if the book is a good paranormal romance or not, but that string of talents still amuses me a lot.

That said, the ad obviously caught my attention and I read considerably less PNR than many people.

Kench.

(Snort) They keep piling on the...talents?...or is there something ELSE they keep piling HIGHER?

PNR doesn't sell like it used to - guess it's jumped the shark.

Well, everything goes in cycles...

Looks like something else, sounds like something else, smells like something else, likelihood is that it IS something else.

I'm still trying to figure out how you can make one person an angel, a viking AND a vampire...

Apparently, he was born a mortal Viking and because he lived his life pretty much as the avatar of Sloth he was "punished" by being turned into a "vangel" and has to do this whole repetence thing.

Along the way to the 21st century though, he was a number of other alpha-male hotties (e.g., sheik, cowboy), et cetera and less impressive things (e.g., ditch digger).

Like I said, it could be great, but that description did make me literally laugh out loud.

One thing's for sure, he almost certainly has a reader-identification shortfall.
