I remember when I bought the book I looked in the cover and there was a review by Stephen King "Awesome thrilling ride!". Wonder how much they paid him to say that LOL?

I think they covered that angle in a recent episode of the Simpsons where Marge wrote a book, they called up authors and asked them if they would say something to the effect of "this is a great book" and when they repeated it back questioningly, then added a WTF, and a heck no they were tol that by repeating the phrase they would and could be quoted with saying "this is a great book." Seems the most plausible explanation for good authors recommending crap. </font>[/QUOTE]LOL Morge. That sounds as good of an answer as any.
Clancy "If you're hunting for a book this red October, Marge Simpson's book is a clear and present danger to your free time. No I will not say that. What? That doesn't count!"
That aired today in syndication
