Reply to comment by TheGrumpyre in What are some techniques used in books that you just love for some weird reason by shorttompkins

I wish more of them did it. My experience with books is that if you know something about something, you’d best avoid novels touching on the topic because they’ll only frustrate you, even if the uninitiated think they’re well-researched.

Indeed. I pity all fantasy fans who also know a lot about horses.

Definitely! I can attest that knowing about politics and governance as a fantasy fan is almost as bad.
