Redball:
I couldn't get more than a few lines into it. It reminded me of some of the winners in the annual Bulwer-Lytton contest, but without the humor.

--- Quote ---"The sun oozed over the horizon, shoved aside darkness, crept along the greensward, and, with sickly fingers, pushed through the castle window, revealing the pillaged princess, hand at throat, crown asunder, gaping in frenzied horror at the sated, sodden amphibian lying beside her, disbelieving the magnitude of the frog's deception, screaming madly, "You lied!"
--- End quote ---
