    Arrow Best. Book. Evar.

    I am hypnotized, and think I may have to purchase this masterpiece. Behold! Moon People! If you find it hard to believe that this is the bestest book evar, two sample pages are below the tag. Read them and listen to your brain exploding.




    I know, you're stunned by the quality of the writing. Check out the author's biography to learn where this level of genius comes from.

    I haven't admired an author this much since I read Guy N. Smith's Crabs on the Rampage.

    I must say, the style and the quality of the writing are reminiscent of 'Plateforme', the latest book by Houellebecq.

    The people that gave the book such good reviews on Amazon surely share the stellar mental abilities of the author. They seem to high for me though.
























    Really, in what for a country do you live where people can actually earn money with writing such a crap that somebody whose mother tongue is not English (me) could do much better? Don't they even employ people who control the authors' grammar and spelling? Really, the decline of American language and culture is already at hand. Frankly, it's already long delayed.

    The scary thing is - obviously the making fun of this book got enough people interested to lift the book up to #525 in Amazon's books sales rank...

    EDIT: OMG - the bad sentence structure is contagious...

    And plagiarism. That Cylon-football thingy looks an awful lot like a copyright infringement suit (or somesuch) in the making.
    "Let us remember that there are multiple theories of Intelligent Design. I and many others around the world are of the strong belief that the universe was created by a Flying Spaghetti Monster. --- Proof of the existence of the FSM, if needed, can be found in the recent uptick of global warming, earthquakes, hurricanes, and other natural disasters. Apparently His Pastaness is to be worshipped in full pirate regalia. The decline in worldwide pirate population over the past 200 years directly corresponds with the increase in global temperature. Here is a graph to illustrate the point."

    Now you see maybe you're not too far off, looks like the evil cylon ball has 3 docking ports, these are obviously to hook up with the cylinder of DOOM. Since the year 2000, aliens in human form have been using the space shuttle to ferry all the worlds booze & drugs to the cylinder of DOOM where its being sythetically modified for the evil cylon ball people to imbibe, this will bring them out of their century long torpor...Just long enough for them to save one human, (D.M.Courtney! They are evil after all), before they destroy earth!

    Now wtf are the publishers? I'm gonna get paid!
