Sometimes the last thing you want to read is an intelligent, thought provoking book. And, I'm glad to say, the book didn't disappoint. The book is clearly miscategorized, though; it should be in the Alternate Universes - Fantasy section. The rate and scope of errors in this book is simply amazing. I'm not even talking about all the F1 details she gets wrong, I'm talking about simple things like a driver finishing a race in second place, and later being congratulated for his fine third place. The point system apparently used in the book's F1 series would put NASCAR to shame in its complexity. The unbelievable winning streaks of drivers, chronological errors, going from "no points in F1 career" to "Monaco winner" in couple of races, etc etc etc. The errors just keep piling on. But, the book did its function, so I wasn't disappointed.
