Karen ConlinWhat in blazes is an "arborwright"???
If he's a woodworker, why not say that? My first thought was "this guy works with entire trees, does he? Shaping them from saplings? Oh, no . . . he's a woodworker."
This penchant for coining nonce words (they'll not appear outside this book or perhaps the series) is maddening. We have so many cromulent words already! USE THEM!
