The Gun Seller
6 journalers for this copy...
from amazon:
If you're selling vacuum cleaners, then your job is easy. But when you have a prototype military helicopter, capable of 500 miles an hour and 1000 corpses a minute to sell, the job calls for a penniless, achingly single, 35-year-old ex-army officer with little self-respect.

Wasn't expecting this one so soon, but the timing is perfect: I've just finished a bookring and was wondering what to read next. Thanks for the speedy shipping, WelshHelen.
Journal Entry 6 by sudokugirl from Sarajevo, Sarajevo Bosnia-Herzegovina on Monday, January 28, 2008
This book is very entertaining and a much better read than I expected when first signing up for a book written by an actor (even though that actor is the fantastic Hugh Laurie). Thank you for sharing, rahar109 and thanks to samulli for organizing this ray.
I have boagat's address and will mail the book this week.

The book arrived already a few weeks ago while we packed to move and I forgot about it. I found it yesterday while unpacking one of the last boxes. Sorry about the delay. I'll try not to keep it that much longer.
Edit: very funny
My favorite sentence: "Democrats don‘t read books" ;-))
And Globus is laundering money for terrorists? I guess, I have to talk to my husband about his employer... ;-)

Well...
If Dr. House ever wrote a novel, it would be like this one.
Curiously, this was written years before Hugh Laurie jumped to U.S.A. and stardom...
And also curiously, I kept on reading because I loved the style and the humour (please don't miss the analogies between sex and cars), better than the plot (I must confess I got a bit lost at times...)
Having said this, thanks for this chance to read it!
Ir will soon be on its way to LeishaCamden, in Norway...

This arrived in the mail on Friday - I've been forgetting to journal it, sorry. I'd almost forgotten about this ray, so it was great that it turned up finally. :-) I have a couple of other rings & rays ahead of it, but I will read it as soon as I can.
Thanks for sharing, everyone! :-)
