So Walter Mosley reread Animal Farm and The Island of Dr Moreau and says to himself, "Oh, yes indeed, I've got a terrific idea for my next best seller." But! Lisa says, "Hold on, hot stuff. You're too late. Chrome is already on the streets. Haha!"
Wow! I just tore through Chrome. So much fun. Oh, I guess I should take a time-out to say that it was very well-written too, but I was enjoying the characters and the story so much that the superb writing simply did its job and I had to consciously reflect to notice the excellent and clever construction and reveals. Uh, isn't that the definition of good writing?
I'm not usually a fan of sequels, but could we please have at least one more romp with Ms Lightfoot and her sidekick Terralina?
Athena how does it feel to be a role model?
