I actually got interested in it too after reading about it in the Scifi-bokhandelns magazine that came last week.

If you judge books by title I guess you're not really a book reader. Book readers tend to at least check out the synopsis.

I finished it earlier today and thought it was pretty good. You could tell tho that it was written to be a movie, kinda like the Jurassic Park book. But still good none the less. Smile

Got it from the mailman an hour ago. Smile

I got the American Doubleday edition. Had the choice of the American and the British.

In general, are there differences between US and British editions of books (text wise, ie. does the brits/yanks change/cut/rework the material to fit british english vs us english?)
