This is not to brag, as I have so few reviews to begin with. I have one 2-star review and that is on MIRAGE, which is a sharecropper novel set in Asimov's Robot Universe. I take this, though, as an indication that those who might have posted one-star reviews on my work were so unimpressed that they chose not to waste the electrons. So perhaps I have a great many no-star reviews. (grin) I had one bad review that trashed the middle book of the same series for being incomprehensible, but the reviewer admitted to not having read the first book (which may have helped) and another on the third book because the type-face was too small. Go fig. I don't post bad reviews myself because I don't feel they serve a purpose. They're more like rocks thrown through windows---more about the reviewer (hey, dig me! I'm here!) than about the book. I’d do this, but I don’t have any one-star reviews. This is not to brag, as I have so few reviews to begin with.
