New Zealand Author Jumps the Shark

Have you seen this book?

Link to September 23 Brian Edwards Media blogpost, "Why Public Libraries are Just a Form of Theft".

Excerpt: But there’s a principle here: when one person buys a book and lends it to another person to read, they effectively become an accessory to theft. Their generous act amounts to little more than stealing the author’s work. When a public library buys a book and lends it to thousands of other people to read, it’s grand theft copyright and really no different from illegally downloading music or movies or copying CDs or DVDs on your computer.
