Trust me, if you can swallow your bile to get as far as that guy got, bite

the bullet and finish it. It's like David Eddings reads this group and 
thought to himself "This will teach the little bastards". I finished the 
first two, knowing they were garbage, in hopes that the whole thing would 
get better and that I was missing something.

I wasn't.

If you want, I will ruin the surprise, and tell you what happens.....

In the end, what's her name, the great cook who is a god-figure, and her 
husband who is also a god-figure, just say that the whole thing is a 
pointless exercise and they change time to eliminate the Vlad before it is

even born. By doing this, none of the occurences in any of the books 
actually happened and it is as if the whole series never happened. It's an

absolutely brilliant "screw you" to the readers.
