The Ordeal : My Ten Years in a Malaysian Prison

Summary: In addition to my short review of 15 July 1998: What sequel?
Review: Due to the few lines I wrote in July 1998, a lot of readers of 'The Ordeal' have contacted me.

I mention that I couldn't wait to go buy the book about what happened afterwards, and a lot of readers have had a hard time finding the sequel.

I read it in danish (titled something like: Når porten åbnes), but apparently - and unfortunately - it has not been translated into english. Here's what the french publisher answered when I asked them:

Dear Ms. Thomsen. I am sorry to have to tell you that "Quand la porte s'ouvre" has not yet been translated. It is however available in French on our website in hardcover and paperback. Beatrice Saubin's other book, "l'Épreuve", is available from Arcade publishing in paperback and hardcover under the title "The Ordeal".

Put pressure on the publisher - as did I. The name of the publisher is 'Octolivres', and their email address is [e-mail]

Over and out

Review: I liked the book very much. Béatrices description of her travel through the Kyberpass, made you want to go the same way. I have thought about it many times and especially now, when it is in focus for the whole world. Now perhaps it is too late.
I have started to read the book again and I long to know how Bétrice life is today.

Summary: Leaving me hanging
Review: I thought this book was interesting, but the last chapter was somewhat to be desired. She didn't say too much, except for the fact of her release. I would have liked a little more said... maybe how she never did find out what happened to Eddy, or if she even thinks of him. Also I believe she could have put something in the very end about the first time she stepped out on free land, for instance maybe what was in her mind, or something to that effect.
