Oh god, that's hilarious.

And, you know, every time I see something like that I get one step closer to writing a book of my own. Surely I couldn't do worse.

But are we sure that this is worse than The Clones, by P.T. Olemy, or James Grazier's Runts of 61 Cygni C, not to mention the immortal Lionel Fanthorpe?

It would appear that I cannot get into this site. What is the actual book ?

That's wonderful. My favorite part:

Me: ... Was this perhaps deft satire, a nifty Swiftian touch?
Burrows: No.
Me: Ah.

No, no, the best part:

"Your book is printed on very white, shiny paper."

*bwahahahahaha*

Hmph. I used "indeed" in conversation. I suspect this reviewer.

I scowled at that too. The rest of the article was amusing, though.

Something called Great American Parade, by a Robert Burrows. It's self-published and does sound really dreadful.
