Why do you care?Again, surely WotC should be publishing anything they want to publish. This idea that WotC has a duty to the consumer to only publish extremely mainstream books is bizarre IMO.A) neither of the authors of this book are currently working at WotC, so your pre-layoff comment is a bit wierd. I mean, Monte and sean were two of the main creative writers at WotC.B) I'm pretty sure that Monta has said repetadly that the BoVD was the book he wanted to write. He also wanted to write the BoED, whic was turned downa t the time, and if any thing 'corporate sensibilities' wanted more gore etc. than Monte would have pout in (e.g. the rape publicity, which the book didn't cover or deal with). BoVD was also writen pre-layoffs, and lastly, tons of people love the BoVD (including me).For the record, Ghostwalk looks pretty dull to me, but that's no reason for WotC to not publish it if they want to.</blockquote>
