A shame he ruined what could have been a remarkable yarn in it's own right by his relentless overdramatisation. I was greatly looking forward to his story coming out, however after hearing a couple of his interviews on the radio/net and the over-egging of various puddings (spin training in the Winjeel comes to mind) I took a pass. I eventually borrowed the book to read, made a genuine start and handed it back unfinished. Ruined.
