I quite listening 3/4 of the way through the book. I would never have bought it if I had realized that the author is also the author of “The Bathrobe Knight”, which I also quit with an hour left in the book. Both of these books suffer from the same problem: trying to be too cute. The author continually winks at the audience, not taking the main character seriously, making it impossible for the listener to take him seriously, either.
