So funny. I knew about this controversy years ago and totally forgot it because I did not read anything by RJ Ellory. Then I tried his books.

 I could not see what Michael Connelly had seen. What was so good about RJ Ellory? I could not see what writers I respected were saying about RJ Ellory. I did not like the most famous of his books--not at all. What was wrong with me?

It is a terrible thing to doubt your own literary judgment! or to be made to doubt Connelly's!
