Robert GoddardAnyone else read his books ??
|
Lord Blackadder

Nope!
Almost all of Goddard's novels follow a very precise format with similar plot developments that appear in all of them:
... the hero will have a flaw, which may be crucial to the plot;
... the hero will sleep with a female character once;
... the hero will visit lots of pubs.
... which is why the ONLY Goddard I want to read about is the great scientist Robert H Goddard, one of the founding fathers of rocketry!

don't think I have, what does he write about. I'm always after a good read. I use books as sleeping tablets.

Try him out, they always have a good twist and keep you thinking, I'm obviously not in the same social class as Blackadder, but do enjoy Robert Goddard's books, each to their own,no one exopects everyone to like the same things,I'm always open to new idea's etc.
