Punching someone requires physical contact, which isn't always practical (or desired). I prefer force choke. Still working on my range, though. Damn Vader could force choke someone from across the galaxy. I'll settle for reaching down the block (friggin noisy kids grumble grumble)

But if we insist on punching, Laurell K. Hamilton would get my punch. I loved the early books in the Anita Blake series, but then she the series went from being Urban Fantasy to full on paranormal erotica and Anita couldn't get through a chapter without having sex, thinking about sex, or being miserable because she had sex with yet another supernatural creature.

I'm not much of one for physical violence, but if I ever stumbled across a bunch of drunk men in kilts pounding the stuffing out of John Norman in an alley behind a SF convention, I'd immediately offer to hold everyone's beers until they finished... and tell them to take their time.

I agree...but rather than resorting to violence, I used the ultimate act against an author. I stopped buying her books....

That's what I did. I was not going to be one of "those people" who kept forking out money and then complaining about the book, just to fork out more money and complain about the next book.

I did the same thing with Robert Jordan.

This reminds me of an SNL skit...


You might end up dancing with zombies.
