I hate to have to give this book a bad review because of a Kindle failure, but I didn't see another view with the same complaint, and I want to alert other readers to BUY THE PAPERBACK. As previously reported in 2018 (and it is now four years later and not fixed), the Kindle version is corrupted, and there is no content after the 8% mark.

And as the book is self-published, I think he may be the one in charge of fixing the problem.
