really liked it
bookshelves: classic, fantasy

When a book defines a genre
There is nothing you can say anymore,
That will add or detract from the volumes and volumes
Of all that has been said before:
So a book review I'm not attempting,
Though the GR site is sorely tempting;
Just paying my respects from the bottom of my heart
And raising my hat to the Master of the Art.

Thank you. I don't think I'm much of a poet, but rather a clever versifier.
