Review title: Good stories, but terrible reproduction and difficult format
Product review: [This review applies specifically to the paperback edition.] I had not anticipated this paperback to measure 8.5" x 11". The cover art looks normal, but the inside pages have about a 2-3" margin all the way around the text. It is an odd, wasteful format that is cumbersome. The inside text is difficult to read. It appears light and fuzzy and not at all crisp. The letters have a halftone appearance (i.e. they are made of dots, not solid black ink.) My guess is that a previous edition was once published in a smaller format (6 x 9 perhaps) and the pages were then scanned to create this edition for print-on-demand fulfillment? Apologies to the author for this one-star rating - the two stories I read before giving up in frustration were entertaining and the writing is excellent. Sadly, your publisher has done you no favors by releasing your book in this poor quality format.
