Those SV writers back in the day where all freaking amazing--loads and loads of ridiculous talent.
I can easily understand that you couldn't read Firebird. None of those people were nice people, and I don't think that the mistreatment they got from the world justified the way they acted at all. I can tell you, there wasn't a moment that any of them felt the slightest regret for what they did. I think The Dog's characters were much more sympathetic even though they were very violent.
It's true--these little blips in our psyches pop up at the oddest times, and can be really unsettling, even frightening. :)
