Yeah, I know...

... but Secrets is really lame. :)

I think the main thing that bothers me about it is that it covers such an important event. If it were just a badly-plotted Exile story (like, oh, Ronin), I could get over it, but it's a badly-plotted Exile story that covers an event (the clearing of Gryphon's name) that really should have been done in a slightly-better-than-half-assed fashion. As it is, there're a few things I still like about it, but they're mainly minor asides. The "plot" is utter nonsense and most of the characterization makes me wince and groan as if poked with a sharp stick.

Ah, well. At least I can use it as the exemplar of my Crap Period. :)
