Typewriter in the Sky by L. Ron Hubbard

It's funny, but after over 250 books sold, not a single person ever commented on the bibliomantic scrap of paper tucked inside almost every single one, cannibalized from a Scientology manual in the furtherance of enturbulation through the stochastic forces of the MEST universe.

Hubbard didn't just write lists of things he thought of, though. He also composed today's book, Typewriter in the Sky.



Like Fear, it's not a bad story. This one about an author out to kill his main character, in whose personality is trapped his best friend, was cited as an influence by Philip K. Dick. It's also an easy book to get a hold of. Like all writings of L. Ron Hubbard, sales of the books are highly subsidized by the Church of Scientology and its members, who end up with stacks of the things. So the entire secondary market is flooded, hence second-hand copies end up having negative value.

The Game-Players of Titan (The Gregg Press science fiction series)

I'm hoping I get a chance to read this one before it sells. I borrowed it from my college library right before going on a leave of absence, and when i got back there was no record of it on my library account. Eminent domain? I think the statute of limitations has run out at least.

Anyway I hear it's mad.

I wasn't sure how I was going to review a book I didn't read. Fortunately Reading Rainbow did the job for me:
