privileged prat with daddy issues

(Or, [info]lilian_cho's criteria for favourite characters)

Question: What do these characters have in common?

Draco Malfoy [Harry Potter]
Robert Chase [House, M.D.]
Val Toreth [The Administration series]
Lex Luthor [Smallville]
Arthur Pendragon [BBC Merlin]

Answer: privileged prat with daddy issues )

In conclusion, Arthur is not enough of a prat to qualify as my favourite character. Sorry Arthur, I love Merlin more. But I like Bradley better than Colin =P
And awesomely enough, there's BradleyJames/Merlin fanfic out there \o/

Para-Investigator Toreth, you rock my world so hard.

For the last four days or so, I've been completely engrossed in Manna Francis' Administration series. I stayed up to read until I felt like throwing up (part exhaustion and part hunger), read in the car and got even more carsick, ignored everything else on the Internet...
(Can't remember the last time I'm so addicted to a book that I went with minimum sleep. It might've been Narnia at age 17 actually. Erm.)

I'll post a proper review with fav. quotes, warnings etc. when I get the books from Amazon. There are one novella and one short story that are not available on the author's Web site.
(I'm one of those strange breed of people who almost never buy a book unless I've read it and loved it).

Important (!): since I have many EvilBlondBritishMan!Fetishist in my F-list, I am perversely happy to inform you that Toreth, the main character, is blond. Praise be, etc.
