Title: Hoped it would be better
Product review: When I read the jacket and description, I hoped for a fun book that I could read from cover to cover on the airplane. I read it cover to cover, but only because I didn't have anything else to do. Its obvious most of these authors have never worked on a collaboration before. Entire plot lines appear and disapear without rhyme or reason, and the whole book just seems to have been thrown together by people looking for an easy buck. This book reminds me of the Steve Martin Saturday Night Live Sketch about "not phoning it in". These authors all phoned it in. In the end, this book isn't bad, but it really isn't anything you'd bother reading if you knew what it was going to be like. Suffice to say this book would never have been published if not for the pre-established names of its authors. My advice is to buy that other book you are thinking about.
