Oh my...it has a cover up now...a really...interesting....cover.... :eek:



Sorry, but that is just an *ugly* cover! I hope the book is better. And thanks for the heads-up, Leslie! :)

Maybe it's a bad, er, scan....

Sounds right up my alley! Thanks for pointing it out, I already hit the one-click button :D

Edit: I'm a couple pages (clicks?) into the book now and I'm not wholly impressed. The author is wordy and over-descriptive, spending paragraphs on things that only need a sentence of two, and he's redundant as well. I'm only two dots into the book and I've already been told twice what an intercostal muscle is (I knew anyway) and how rewarding his career is, both sentences worded in almost the exact same way.

The dialogue is weak, the wife talks like a teenager but the toddler son is perfectly eloquent, and for a surgeon the main character doesn't seem to know much about the human body. I'll keep reading, but I'm not too impressed.
