That sounds like dumb planning of the sample to me. That's a total of five pages, so they could have given half a chapter, rather than a bunch of title pages. Half a chapter is still short though. But I've noticed when I read samples, that though it sometimes takes me quite a while to get hooked, putting me entirely off a book to the point where I perma-delete the sample takes only a couple of pages.
