Again, thank you SOO much!

Received in Chula Vista California on 12/16/2004

Again - Thank You!

Good book. Took VERY long to get into though. It took about half the relatively short book to take off, but the boring parts were needed to set the stage.

After reading the commentary at the back of the book - this novel started to truly make sense...and it was scary how many true messages of human nature this book contains.

I recommend reading this. But note: its really slow at first.
