Dude, you need a Kindle

i havent made the transition to Ebooks yet...but i just snagged this one onto my droid via google books

[IPD]

and not just any kindle. e-ink kindle. f**k the fire. i've had my 3g kindle for about a year, and it's been awesome. i used it for work-related training, online college classes, you name it. slightly slow speed is more than made up for by the ability to hightlight selections & search from highlights. makes citing sources a breeze.

well, i finally finished it yesterday...t'was definately was a bit different, except for the "one man saves the world" thing...which i usually cant stand. BUT this one was far enough off the beaten path, that it kept me waiting for more down time to keep reading

...other than the heaven/hell angle (which may irk some of the religious crowd) there were some hilarious portions, however brief

my only real issue was technical at best, i was unaware that the droid needs a signal to keep reading a book. im guessing it only grabs a few pages at a time to keep you moving thru it, cause as soon as i would climb out over about 13,000 feet it would shut down on me until i descended back below same altitude

...so i guess its on to book two

What, you haven't programed the autopilot to follow signals...?

"sorry sir, we drifted a bit off course...."

EDIT: And the truth comes out.... NOW we know why the simulator really crashed.

Thank you for pointing me to this series. I made it through the first book in two days reading every minute I could. I rarely read but I loved this book. The next two are on their way from Amazon right now!

I can see how you read a book a day lol.

Glad I could help
