Although I haven't read the downloaded version of this book I have read the paperback version I am not sure why you have advised that there are 300 pages in this book and I got only 124 is there part of the book missing this really is a great trilogy I'm just not sure if I made the right decision downloading it there is nothing more annoying than reading a book and finding that it's not all there

Absolute must read. Cannot wait to read the 3rd book. It is eye opening and makes ome humble. It surely makes me look at other people 'softer' and with more respect!
