[QUOTE="Mannahnin, post: 9666200, member: 7026594"] Have you or have you not read them? Far from being harshly biased, they go out of their way (especially [I]When We Were Wizards[/I]) to be kind and cut people slack. [I]Slaying the Dragon [/I]a little less so. Ben gets a little sarcastic with Gary here and there. Anyone calling [I]Game Wizards[/I] biased looks silly. Peterson is always scrupulously fair and brings the hard documentary evidence. He lets Gary and Dave and the Blumes speak in their own words and contracts. Gary told stories. Self-serving stories. For many years. Many of us loved and respected him and his legacy, and many of us still do despite his bad sides, but he spent years misrepresenting [B]all [/B]the mismanagement of TSR as being the fault of the Blumes and Williams, when the cold hard on-paper documentation shows that he was at least equally responsible. The factual things you're saying (Flint introduced Lorraine to Gary when he was seeking help to keep the company from going under, the book division mistreated and drove away authors who were bringing in big bucks) aren't news to anyone here.
