I wasn't expecting this to be published until November, but it has arrived and I'm about half finished with it already! Very well written and I'm enjoying it very much. It contains the most thorough profile of the author I've read with a great deal of insight.
Monika:
I hadn´t heard about it before. Thanks. This is definately a must-buy.
