Just pre-ordered this. I've always enjoyed Leander's writing, and I'm really looking forward to taking this in.
Oh, this is probably where I should mention that Michael, who has never done much media he isn't required to, spoke to me for several hours for the book. And was arrestingly candid.
So, you know, pre-order and all that, please.
