Microstub for some book. According to this it's the author's "debut" work. Publisher says it's also available as an e-book--both published 3 months ago. New book by new author doesn't seem very notable--Amazon rank #137,967, google hits for exact title 1,020. Niteowlneils 17:59, 17 Nov 2004 (UTC)


 * Keep. --Daniel C. Boyer 20:57, 21 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep. This has been published in print and has quite a bit of buzz about it. Terrible stub, notable subject. Gamaliel 18:30, 17 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete if not improved by the end of VfD. I would normally say send to Clean Up, but I don't want to take the chance that folks there will merely wikify it (and why don't I do work on Clean Up anymore?  I know -- I'm a hypocrit). Geogre 19:16, 17 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep the rewrite. Good work, folks.  I don't even think it should have the stub message on it. Geogre 15:57, 19 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep keep keep and I'm starting to clean it up right now. I've seen this well-reviewed book face-out at a local chain bookstore, which I wouldn't have noticed and remembered if author Minister Faust, aka Malcolm Azania, wasn't one of the most notable young writer/activist/aspiring politician types in Canada and briefly the subject of major national controversy during the last federal election.

 * I've moved to The Coyote Kings of the Space-Age Bachelor Pad, the version with hyphen being the official title. Coyote kings of space age bachelor pad (sic) survives as a useless redirect - can we delete that alone? Samaritan 20:01, 17 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Have you looked at the image of the book's cover? I purposely moved it to the hyphen-less title, as I would consider the book's cover a better gauge of the "official" title than what amazon.com happens to refer to it as. Niteowlneils 20:15, 17 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Hey, good catch! One of them should redirect, anyway... Samaritan 20:18, 17 Nov 2004 (UTC)


 * Notable book by notable writer. Keep. Bearcat 01:08, 18 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep Strange (Notable) book in it's own right even without authors own notability —Florescentbulb 04:24, 18 Nov 2004 (UTC)

 * Keep. [[User:GRider|GRider\talk]] 17:36, 22 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep. I have seen this book in a couple of different bookstores, and it does seem to be notable. ScottM 20:58, 22 Nov 2004 (UTC)
