More on The Quillan Games

My review is here.

In some ways, I don't trust MacHale. I'm not even sure how to describe this, except to say that the Pendragon series feels like an attempt to make money. That's not a problem, but what I assume are MacHale's other and more noble goals, such as storytelling, don't sufficiently override my feeling that money was a more important motivator. MacHale works in tween/teen television, a genre that's often contemptuous of its consumers, so I shouldn't be surprised to have this feeling.
