My apologies, Krob, in that case. I do not feel that I "attacked" you, and it is not at all my intention to make Goodreads feel like a hostile environment. But ... if authors can respond to positive comments about their books, why not to negative? Personal insult or as you say "attack" are always beyond the pale, but that is not what I did. Why not a debate over dissenting points of view, and why should the author be excluded? With all sincere good wishes to you and your reading enjoyment,

Does that make sense, at all?

All best,

Yay! That's a lot of stars! Glad you enjoyed it. I'd love to know more of your thoughts on the book and wonder if you'd consider posting a review?

Cheers,
