Query: Couldn't be worse writing

I can go along with loose, improbable plot strings and poor chartacter development up to a point. But the inane dialog and the awkward, limping, adolescent writing and desperate need of a competent editor make this book positively painful to read. One co-author, Richard Brookes, claims that "he is finally developing a talent for writing that was evident from his earliest years..."Sorry, Charlie--what was finally developing was wanting to write, without, in fact, a talent for it. the two aren't at all the same.
