Hitler's Son

Rating:
Summary: There should be a NEGATIVE star rating for this trash
Review: I don't have any issue with the book's story, its plot, or even its rice paper thin developed character. To list all the laughable flaws in this novel would be a waste of time. The only reason why this book is even a "page-turner" or "can't put down" piece is b/c you can't believe that anything this bad could ever be published! So you stick around and continue reading just to satisfy your curiosity. Sure enough, with each timid turn of the page, I never ceased to cringe at Mr. Bauman's juvenile imagination and his even lower level of writing style. My problem is mainly with this author's poor grasp of the English language.

A question for Mr. Bauman - sir, did you even bother to proofread your novel? Or were you too tired after spending countless seconds on your ridiculous in-depth, thorough research on airline schedules? Was that suppose to impress your readers that you could tell us which Luftansa flight to take if one were interested in flying from Dallas to Germany? The biggest irony here is that the author proudly claims on the back cover that his wife is a retired English teacher. Second question for Mr. Bauman - did it ever occur to you to at least to hand the manuscript to your wife for editing? Practically every page in the novel is replete with grammatical and/or spelling errors. Usage of quotation marks was random at best. It was as if Bauman applied the "spaghetti cooking method" when it came to adding quotation marks in this novel - he flicked a handful of them on the pages, and whatever stuck got published.

I felt a deep embarrassment for the author after I bothered to finish this trite piece of rubbish. In marriage there's always an annulment; in digital photography there's always the delete button; but in published works that are displayed on Amazon, what refuge can one seek when the finished work is as awful as "Hitler's Son"? (Please note, Mr. Bauman that is how one uses quotation marks.)
