Title: Too much vulgarity for me, thank you
Product review: The book appears to get rave reviews for its technical merit, even though it's a fictional work. I will never know. I bought the Kindle version of the book, and midway through chapter 2, I knew I couldn't, in good conscience as a Christian, finish reading it. Having spent 3 years in the Army, and 23 in the Navy, I've had my share of exposure to foul language, and even practiced it a bit, but it seems this book goes to extreme measures to use the name of God in vain, and to speak in terms that would make a sailor blush. I did a search of a few of the 'off-color' words I could think of, and the hits astonished me - enough to cause me to cease and desist. I had to check to be sure this wasn't written by Al Pacino. I've belonged to a running club for a number of years, and we don't talk like that. It's a shame, because I really enjoyed "Heart Rate Training for the Compleat Idiot". Hard to believe this book is by the same author.
