Quote from Thunderdog:
Frankly, I doubt very much that you often turn down review requests as you say you do. The fact that you praised Covel's book and then turned around and said it was full of shit ("fatally flawed") tells me that you will attach your name to anything that moves. Or doesn't. I defy you to give me the name of one published book that you refused to review after being asked to do so. And what's wrong with disclosing such information anyway? Are you a legitimate book critic or a cheerleader/shill?
Further, I can't imagine how bad those books must have been for which you supposedly turned down review requests. Hell, you give glowing reviews for "fatally flawed" books! If you could extend your "professional courtesy" to the authors of "fatally flawed" books, then one can only imagine what you flatly refuse to endorse. The mind boggles.
