    The wasp stings me to protect its family, I kill the wasp to protect mine. Glad it’s me who’s the giant.

        That was the one that made me realize I’d outgrown the series. Dunno if old RL was really phoning that one in or what, but one of his chapter cliffhangers ended with “and the dragonfly bit me in half!” Then the next chapter started with “But it was just my imagination.”
