Not enough coverage in reliable sources to verify or sustain an article. Fails general notability and WP:NBOOK. There are no sources listed in the article and it makes no claim of notability. J bh Talk  20:09, 12 May 2015 (UTC)

 * Comment: I did find two reviews from local newspapers, but local sources are usually fairly depreciated when it comes to showing notability. Other than that I'm only finding blog reviews and other SPS. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)  04:10, 16 May 2015 (UTC)
 * I am not inclined to think the Billings Gazette material is an independent source. His bio lists him as an editor and says [//craiglancaster.wordpress.com/about-craig-lancaster/]. CSPAN is more specific and describes him as  [//www.c-span.org/video/?315360-1/literary-culture-billings-montana] so I can not see Billings Gazette articles as being independent for anything relating to his books.

 * Delete Acc. to the WorldCat entry, this was published by "Amazon Publishing" which is a self-publisher. It's held in only about 55 libraries, which is not many, and the book has been out for two years. The book is available on Amazon for $0 in its Kindle edition. LaMona (talk) 21:36, 18 May 2015 (UTC)
