You have been blocked from editing for a period of three days for copyright violations and removing warning notices. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.

 * You must not copy material into Wikipedia unless a proper legal copyright release has been made - see Copy-paste. Even the short introductory paragraph remaining after you removed the main section was a copy from www.harpercollins.com. Also, publishers' blurbs have a promotional tone quite unsuitable for an encyclopedia article, which requires a neutral point of view. Wikipedia is not a notice-board, and is not for advertising or promotion of any kind, and an encyclopedia article about a book should not look like an advertisement or a publisher's blurb. If you are interested in writing about books, see WP:WAF for advice on how to do it. JohnCD (talk) 09:30, 23 October 2010 (UTC)

You have been blocked from editing for a period of two weeks for renewed copyright violation immediately after previous block for the same reason. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. JohnCD (talk) 19:35, 28 October 2010 (UTC)
 * I do not know how to make the message clearer than I did above: "You must not copy material into Wikipedia."
 * I blocked you for three days for copyright violations, and two days after your block expired you did it again. See the search results for two phrases from your Plot Summary:, . I do not know or care who is the original author of this or owns the copyright, but even though it is all over the internet it may not be copied into Wikipedia unless a formal release has been made by the copyright owner. See Copy-paste for why minor modifications of words do not prevent a violation of copyright.


 * I have removed the copied Plot Summary section, and the peacock term "gripping", and with a slight rewording the remaining article is neutral enough to escape speedy deletion as an advertisement. JohnCD (talk) 19:35, 28 October 2010 (UTC)
