gacked from everyone

You give me the title to a story I didn't write (or that no one wrote, it doesn't have to be a real title to anything), and I'll give you a synopsis of what the story would be, were it written by me.

Should I ask your reaction to the ominous news that Drake broke not one, not two, but five computers in the making of Some Golden Harbor? Coupled with the whole "this book is different from the rest of the series", I'm not sure whether to be dreading this or cheering it on....

Well, okay, I do trust David Drake. It's just a trust that includes being resigned to wrenching storylines every once in a while.

I have told a colleague of mine at work, who is in awe of a man who can break five computers in the course of writing one novel.
