It would appear that no one has read this book.. am i wrong? i got it for a graduation present, and it is amazing

if any other racers have read this book, what were everybody's favorite chapters?

definitely. i actually just found my copy the other day, it's funny you bring it up. i had been wanting to find it for some time, and then i found it under this one end table.

oh yeaaah. so good. maybe a library read if you dont want to shell the bucks. it read really fast, but definitely has rereadability too. all the action is vaguely familiar, but still exciting.


oh. a synopsis.. chuck dugan is a sweet-at-everything military boarding school student. he has to leave and find his father who is reported as dead, but chuck suspects foul play. loads of great drawings (and of course, funny captions pointing to different things) and even more fights, smooth moves, and close calls.

I've been wanting to get it but I haven't had time, but with all this darjeeling hype,and me getting the same excitement and anxiousness I got from the Life Aquatic, I might get it.

Does anyone know if the Chuck Dugan screen play is still being written? I read in an article that ECA was working on a screen play for the Chuck Dugan movie

just curious. if you've heard of a screenplay being written, did they name drop Wes as a possible director?

i think it'd be rad. I just want to see him pick up a few more projects.

I have my copy.
The story is nice, but the drawings by Eric Chase Anderson are the best part IMHO.
