Calling out Florin - There Will Be Dragons
Re: Calling out Florin - There Will Be Dragons
#6
In my opinion, Ringo is usually only 1 step above most self-insertion writers, and that step is he manged to get published.
Overly given to techno-babble, the antagonists are always easily waved off as entirely selfish/malevolent, etc. Protagonists are always Swell Guys, or just misunderstood.
Most of his characters are generally one-dimensional.
OTOH, some of the stories where he is kept in check by a more experienced author are quite good. I loved the "March to.." series.
