Russ BrightActually, the Horse book has so many grammatical problems it would HURT more prospective authors and drug users than help them. It's scary how poorly the book was written - from a literary point of view, it should have never been published.
While the book, "The Card" may ruffle some collector's feathers, I don't see why it would be held in such low esteem from readers. I CAN understand how it would be frowned upon by collectors (who agree/disagree/were misquoted) investors (who bought/sold/trimmed/pressed/scammed, "the card") and Cardboard purists.
From a purely entertainment POV (Point of View), is it worth the read? Will it enlighten me more than the past year reading posts on this Board? I doubt it.
It amazes me what little comments/things can act as catalysts on this board. I still want a copy to read, but have no desire to PAY for one, i might pick up a copy secondhand. or on the discount rack from barnes and noble next year. I'm just looking forward to the New Harry Potter book - life is too short to waste it reading things that will give me ulcers when discussing them with fellow cardboard enthusiasts.
hope someone enjoyed the horse book - it's an amazing read, and Hal again, congrats on being Quoted in the book, it's always nice to hold a piece of History in your hands that YOU are a part of!
