Wow. That book sounds like the kind of fiasco I haven't seen since Bester decided that The Count Of Monte Cristo needed an updated modern version, and figured "you know what's better than swordfights? TELEPORTATION!"

"But if this ever-changing world in which we're livin'
makes you give up and cry..."

Sorry, I just couldn't let that egregious misquote (fitting though it is) go without commentary.
"Say Live and Let Die"!

I'm with [livejournal.com profile] jonquil. Is this for real? I was cringing till I got to the punctuation paragraph, and having read the whole thing I feel much better knowing it is all a joke. (A decade old joke, at that.)

Right? Right?
