If you want to laugh until you cry, check out this website. Search: Dale M Courtney. Then click on: Amazon.Com:Customer Reviews: Moon People. Don't go to Amazon direct because they appear to have removed the reviews. Follow the above. Have fun.

I wonder if the joke's on us, and this is a runaway best seller in the making - because I'm inclined to agree with the reviewer who says "Seriously? This is possibly the worst piece of literature ever created. The author has the worst grammar I've ever seen. The few pages I've seen read like an 8 year old wrote them. Oh, and all of the reviews have the same style as the book.. because the author faked ALL of them." If you can't write and sell a good book, maybe this is the answer - deliberately write a really, really atrocious one, and publicise it with even more atrocious reviews? I notice the author hasn't taken advantage of "Search Inside" - so the only way of seeing more of this book is to buy it.

I reckon you could well be right, Athene. I believe he has sold umpteen copies on the back of the book's dreadfulness. I've read the first page and it is truly dire, but very funny. And, don't forget, there's a Moon People 2 & 3. I'm gOinG. two start' ritin sOm thing simylar my' sElf.

Mind you, he can't have sold that many - he's number one million and somethingth in the Amazon charts. I've sold very few copies of my books (we're talking 100s, tops) and I was at around about 100 thousandth last time I checked.

That should have read, Many thanks for reading them. There, I've got that straight. Ta ta.
