    <body><![CDATA[Ok, so I read all Jack Weyland's other books as a teen and pre-teen and liked them. I ran into this book a few years back at the book store and was so excited to read it. It made me realize that when I read Weyland's other books, I was young and nieve. I was a bit disappointed... Bummer!]]></body>
