100 page intro wow, I don't think plato wrote the intro, it was probably written by some modern historian who was attempting to convey some of the things that he has learned about the book. A round about intro, I guess the author of the intro must be a modern historian. My experience with the writtings of modern historians leads me to believe that a good majority of them lack the ability to communicate in writting.
I am having a bit of dificulty focusing on one book. I started off reading A Hymn Before Battle and started into book two Gust Front until I remembered that members of this forum liked the Empire of Man series and I picked up a copy of that and started reading the first of that series - A March Upcountry of which is going quite well, although I am thinking of going back to the book gust front. Some times I have dificulty keeping focused on one book rather than a group of books. Prior to getting my kindle I would have shied away from books like Gust Front and MarchUpcontry since they are huge door stopper novels, would have been quite intimidated by them. Not so anymore since I do not need to deal with the physical size of the book any mroe and focus more on the text of the book rather than the physical size of the book.
