In any case, again, you're too hard on yourself as the criticisms were spot on, and hell, I wrote the thing with Matt, so I'm as biased as anyone. Thanks, Rob!
(Oh, and for the record, I wouldn't edit it. It's nice to read comprehensive reviews along with the shorter ones!)
I think I'm a good writer overall, but the review was written in haste, and was just too long. Few people are going to read it all the way. I don't have the innate gift of brevity. On top of that, I think "scholarly" is not really an accurate description of the book's prose, and such a term might scare away potential readers.
Still, my review is going to stand for now (and possibly forever), since I don't feel like messing with it at this time. And let me make it clear so there are no misunderstandings to AA forum readers: my review was very positive, giving the book five stars, with just a few minor criticisms.

By the way, I guess it's time for me to ask this: what's a "Woot?" I think I heard you mention here that it's some sort of insider gaming term, but I have no idea what it means, or how it pertains to the movie.
