This is the first of the "new" M*A*S*H packages that I have purchased. The folder is quite cheap - yet functional. The largest detraction (2 stars worth) is that there is no episode summary available - not even a piece of paper as to what episode is on each disc. While not essential for the first time round, when trying to find and episode to re-watch, this is essential. I know M*A*S*H fairly well, but I don't really want to have to memorize the episodes on each disc. To Fox: Put out summaries you cheapos!
For being a thriller, it is not very thrilling. The book has rather dark under-tones and not much redemptive value to it. Deadfall takes a bit to get into and does not improve.

The most redemptive thing for me was picking it up cheap!

You will want to finish this book - it will take priority over that essay you have to write. It is just that good. And the ending, this is one of the greatest endings I have ever read and is right up there with the ending from Ted Dekker's Black - the ending of the Dark Foundations just… Read more
