I see you that and raise you 2 books by Alexander Besher - Rim and Mir.
Truly the worst things I have ever read:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/RIM-Alexander-Besher/dp/1857235460/ref=sr_1_3?ie
=UTF8&s=books&qid=1274270932&sr=8-3
I have absolutely no doubts that my writing skills exceed those of Mr
Besher. I am tempted to write some fantastic novel in order just to
prove it. I love sci-fi. His books spit on all that is good in sci-fi
and then runs for the bike sheds where they promptly sniff glue and fail
their foundation level literacy exams. I am getting palpitations just
thinking about Rim and Mir.
