I didn't have any trouble putting mine down....got it out of the mailbox, sat in my recliner, then had to put it down 3 hours later because there were no pages left to read...front to back without so much as a break to take a leak...great read Dave...Ill be ready for another one next month...you are going to do a book a month aren't you? I mean you do a story every month in the magazine...hahaha
