Who's the naked chick? And how does one "hound" the moon? As we did last time, we can check the jacket to find out what this book has to offer.....
This is a new one on me. A lot of book writers base their stories on events they wish would happen to them, but I've never seen a less-successful author write a novel about being a successful author. That just feels pathetic.
But wait, there's more!
But wait, there's still more!
But wait, there's even more than that! It just keeps going!
So, in summary:
I don't know what
else I can add to that, except that it worked on at least one
person. If it had just been about a successful author, I probably
would have left it in the bin.
Extra Note: Powell's is one of the places visited in this book. But the name of the place has been changed to "Simpson's." D'oh!
Remember when "VIRTUAL REALITY" was the exciting future instead of the failed past? 1995 was the peak of that belief and is when this book was printed. One singular arcade game and Virtual Boy later, mankind said "Never mind, this doesn't work."
This is actually Christian Fiction. It's impossible to tell so from the cover, unless you recognize the publisher, Thomas Nelson. Most young-adult Christian Fiction books are disguised the same way, so the secular friends of faith-based children won't see the covers and give them wedgies for wanting to go to heaven.
FINAL FANTASY XI
INSTRUCTION MANUAL: What is this doing here?
This isn't
even technically a book! Could I actually take all the old
instruction manuals out of my library of games and sell them to
Powell's for profit?
INSTRUCTION MANUAL FOR OLD SEWING MACHINE: Apparently so.
