"Oh God, maplejet's trying to be cool again. I'll call the ambulance." - Wylvane

I'm embarrassed to admit this, but I've never read this book. Ironically, it was never required reading at my high school.

How does that make you feel?

I don't like this duchy. Now, it's an adventurer.

No

I'm pretty sure the whole point of the book was that you were supposed to hate everyone in it.

I disagree. I believe that Fitzgerald actively expressed the flaws of each character but whether a character is liked or not is not up to him, it's up to the reader.
