I was at the used book store recently and saw a number of his books in the sci-fi section. They had a lot of Battlefield Earth copies which I saw at the dollar theater when I was in the Air Force and felt a dollar was too much, but to be fair a book shouldn’t be judged on it’s adaptation (Wheel of Time for instance). It’s just that with his books I can’t get past the whole Scientology things.
Just out of pure curiosity I do want to read Dianetics one day because that commercial was on a lot when I was a little kid. I want to see what all the fuss was about.
I appreciate the concise response. Lol. For some reason the local book store always has a good chunk of his sci-fi but I never bothered to read them. Like I said Dianetics makes me curious due to all those 80s commercials
The story of Scientology itself is pretty interesting. It's a massive fraud in which Enlightenment is promised, but only after you pay thousands of $ "progressing" through succeeding levels until you reach the exalted status of "Clear," which is presumed to be something like having a seat at the left hand of God.
Maybe Tom Cruise has enough $ to attain Clear status. Leah Remini (sp?) bailed when she couldn't pony up any more cash.
