I actually downloaded The Onuissance Cells and had a quick look at it, the same kind of look I would give any book when browsing a bookshop.
I don't consider myself qualified to say if the book is good or bad, but I think it is inappropriate as a marketing tool.
It totally lacks a hook or hooks, and begins with a long piece of economic and political text which makes very clear the author's slant on these subjects, without giving a potential reader who doesn't already share these views, any reason to continue reading.
There was no suggestion at all of a mystery, a threat, an adventure, or a promising romance. Generally, no reason to keep reading or to buy one of his books.
The right reader might indeed find it fascinating, but The Onuissance Cells makes it really hard for a casual browser to discover if he or she is indeed such a person.
