David Roth When I first met my wife and discovered that she is as avid a reader as I am, I declined her offer to read Outlander. "No was I'm going to read a sappy romance novel."

Eventually we negotiated a truce. She would read my Earth's Children collection, and I would read the Outlandish series.
