Have you heard of the bestseller, The Pandora Prescription by James Sheridan?  Well, I just did.  Why haven’t I heard of this book before?  Apparently tens of thousands of people signed a petition to ensure this book was not banned!  I guess I’ve been too busy reading Brain Allergies,  and the Pangborn and Baker book, Autism: Effective Biomedical Treatments.  Regardless, here’s what people are saying about The Pandora Prescription on Amazon.com:

“Award-winning copywriter James Sheridan presents The Pandora Prescription, a suspenseful novel about a deadly secret kept by giant pharmaceutical companies, and the ruthless lengths to which they will go to protect it. Well-known author Dan Travis is on a book tour when a mysterious message from a stranger in distress changes his life forever. Drawn irrevocably into a secretive war, his only hope for survival is to find an incriminating data file before time runs out. The quest to uncover a link between a remorseless medical cover-up and a massive assassination conspiracy will take him across the country, and amid a hidden society of doctors who swore an ancient oath. A captivating, tautly written thriller for the twenty-first century.” — Michael Dunford, The Midwest Book Review, MBR Bookwatch: February 2008

He is sucked into a silent war which hinges on an incriminating data file. Finding it is Travis’s only hope for surviving a deadly chase across America. But to find its location, Travis must discover the link between the biggest medical cover-up in history and the greatest assassination conspiracy of the twentieth century. The key lies within a secret underground of doctors sworn to an ancient oath. When the solution is the problem, which side will YOU be on? The facts behind the fiction will blow you away.

When I Googled the book, I found a website (HERE) that invites readers to join in on a treasure hunt worth $50,000!  From what the site says, somewhere in America there is a treasure chest containing a key to a safe deposit box that holds 50 grand.  Readers are supposed to solve six riddles that lead them to a key; the key opens the treasure chest; the treasure chest contains $50,000 worth of solid gold coins!  Man, could we use that kind of money!

I have to run over to the bookstore this week (with the money from my coin jar… THAT’s how broke we are!) to pick up a copy of The Autism File Magazine, so I might just pick up a copy of this book as well (if I have enough pennies, that is).

Anyone read this one?  What’d you think?
