Well, not really, but I was a bit surprised to see the use of the word "arse" in a Jack Vance novel. I can't recall him using even mild swear words in any other book as he tends to use rather more ornate descriptions, and like Asimov, never ventures into the bedroom with his characters. Anyone care to comment, or correct me?
