I'm just used to them all arriving neatly on time and the other comments did arrive fairly fast.

Ow. It's sad that it happens, though. Call me an idealist, but I don't think 'well-known' should be a free ticket to publishing bad books. I'm sure the book could've been at least average with some decent sense whacked into its plot.

Oh, definitely. ^-^ I'm having way too much fun with all the legend/folktale/fairytale inspired stuff my muse has come up with.
