Yeah, I remember the comercial. (duck and weave) But how is the writing, I am particular about the actual writing of a book.

Nice style.....you may want to watch out for where he actually reads The Book. That is where it gets a little dragging, but overall it is a very good book.

It's awesome, I dunno it's so great I can't really describe it. If you hate it I'll give a pair of Shiny Imperial Boots, but I intend too keep my boots.

It was dragging perhaps, but informative on the status of Oceania. Verilon, you think the Brotherhood actually has a genuine book?
