Funny. This month's Dragon deals with this subject. It has good advice, too, which basically states that a good DM should try and make the game fun for all.
Note I said a "good DM should". Otherwise, I agree with Dr. Midnight. If a DM is going to run a game a certain way and won't budge from that, than take it or leave it. Complaining probably won't help. A bad DM has the right to be a bad DM.
Personally, I'd never play in such a "game". If this DM wants to write a book, then that's what he should do. The characters don't have the annoying habit of doing things that goes outside of the tight confines of his story.
