[Ansteorra] Interesting book

[Cisco Cividanes]

 Could I beg a boon of anyone who has read this book?

I would LOVE to include a small book review on my podcast tomorrow? would
anyone be interested in writing up a shoet review? Or maybe calling my voice
mail and talking about it for a moment or two?
