You can get the first half of that as an extended free sample
over at Smashwords, where the author has split it into two parts. Alternatively, you can wait for his other backlist novels to repeat on KDP Select and see if you like his writing that way before shelling out for the new one.
Also, you may find selections you like in the
e-Reads catalogue, which is almost all backlist reprints by established midlist & higher tier authors with decent reputations (excepting romance writer Janet Dailey who was sued for plagiarism by Nora Roberts), and couponable via Fictionwise, which can work out to ~$3-5 with a good weekend discount offer.
