As if we ever needed more data to reveal the sham of a review engine that is Harriet Klausner, here's her review of The Last Guardian of Everness. Compare this with the book's ingram and you will see a virtual sentence-by-sentence rewording. No insight into what worked, what didn't. I found this shortly after posting my own review, while vainly seeking meaningless validation that my impressions were concurrent with the general populace.

Klausner is a shill for the book industry (I still wonder if its all of them or just a couple of publishers.) I don't have a problem with that - they are gaming the system I guess.
I do wish there was a way to let people on Amazon all know about the fraud though.
