than the dragon masters which i wasn't very impressed with at all. i

Dark, dark, dark.

The major intriguing point of _The Dragon Masters_ was that each species,
the men and the dragons, used specially-bred members of the other species
as transport, workers and fighters of various kinds (which makes the title
ambiguous, too).

Heck, he's got four three-book serieseses, and one four-book.

Then there's the four "Dying Earth" books, _The Dying Earth_, _The Eyes
of the Overworld_, _Cugel's Saga_ and _Rhialto the Marvelous_.

And the three "Alastor" (cluster) novels.

You display a hole: admitted, and a fine hole it is.
But how does this hole differ from any other?
