I'm kinda pissed off it's so busy today at work.  I brought my kindle expecting a slow day and to have time to be able to read.  I was up until 5 am last night reading.  The story is starting to really draw me in.  The kindle is amazing too.  It only takes a few minutes to completely forget your reading on an electronic device and lose yourself in the story.  It's like a "transparent" device.  It works so well that you don't think about the fact that you are using it.

Yup, it's daddy's magic book at my place. I always joke that my dad never had a book with gmail on it

The level of detail in that book just plain draws you in. Is the map included in the kindle edition? And the illustrations?
