    <body><![CDATA[This was completely fun.  Miles would be totally insufferable as a main character if it wasn't for his constant awareness that he's about to fall flat on his face in the most humiliating fashion possible.  That one trait makes him fun instead of an annoying know-it-all.  I'm so glad I was turned ont...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/46952774">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[The books contained in this omnibus are a lot of fun. It is light reading and very easy to breeze through, heavy on dialogue and humor. There is a mixture of serious storytelling dealing with themes such as oppression and prejudice and light-hearted humor that provides a nice balance between the two...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/21732823">more...</a>]]></body>
