My View: Fantastic! I was actually blown away by its beautiful detail, wit, great devices, and obvious passion, especially when they key writer is not a professional author. All told at great speed and high intensity, I loved it! A very intriguing look into the world we all want to snoop in.
Always,
Your Bibliomaniac
