I tried to read this book but only got about a third of the way into it. The biggest problem was this book is print on demand and not available in bookstores. (No, I don't have a Kindle or a Nook, nor do I want one). This was the October pick for Watch the Skies book group. The de book took 2 weeks to arrive in print form. The discussion was good, but only half the group actually finished the book. ( )
