Query: The Race of My Life by Hermann Maier

I was terribly disappointed with the 100 or so pages I forced myself to read. I had looked forward to reading about Maier's incredible courage and expected to be inspired as I was by Lance Armstrong's book. Maier's book fails to re-create the experience of the extraordinary event, and his miraculous return to competition. Hard to believe that a story such as this could be made tedious. It reads as though Maier dictated it into a computer program which translated and transcribed it. I also suspect they rushed it to print without the revisions it needed desperately. I found myself skimming pages, and I was shocked by how poorly the story is told and written. He is clearly the uber-athlete, but he should stay on the slopes and leave writing to the experts. Waste of time and money.
