It also appears there is some type of campaign to artificially inflate the ratings for these books through faked 5 star reviews. I am suspicious because I see many 5 star reviews for these books from "people" with no other amazon reviews. If true, this would be pretty ironic for a book published by a Christian publishing house.

It is certainly made clear to Zach when he takes the case that if he loses it will be a major blow to his career and that seems to be his guiding ethic from then on, rather than a search for truth or justice. Sorry for the rant. Last edited by beernutz; 12-13-2009 at 01:51 AM.
