This story is an interesting one, though it was told very poorly throughout this book. For as much as the author seems to criticize the writing of Smith, I can't say hers was great either.

A lot of this book relied heavy on publishing the writing of other people, and cobbling it together to make some sort of story out of it, though the way it was presented was tedious at best, buying the lead at the end and making me wonder WTF I had missed in the rest of the book.

I'm not sure if there are other books on Smith (not that I'd care to read them again anyway), but I feel all in all like this would have been better edited into a podcast with a clear storyline.
