Burl does not like my review! Another author who can't behave?

My review and his post

I also posted this review on amazon and today I received a notice that the author has replied there.
Well. Not sure if I am going to buy his books anymore. I gave it 3 stars but he thinks I am talking shit apparently because his post was very sarcastically. Authors don't do that!!! I spend money on his books and am entitled to my opinion right?

On Wednesday, April 11, 2007 I wrote about this book:


Not near as good as those 7 reviewers stated on amazon.
I bought this book because of the good reviews. 4.5 stars but to be honest, I was disappointed.

Now I am wondering about the amazon system. I know people who write reviews ask their friends to vote for them, stating that their review is helpful.
This sucks, because lots of people like me refer to the reviews out there to buy a book.
I bought this one new because of it.

Maybe not nice to say but it got very boring.
Very repetitive, when you complete this book you still don’t have a clue about the killer, how he murdered the girls, what happened to him after he got caught. Why he did what he did.

6.5
Definitely not worth 4.5 stars. yes his writing is not bad, but I can't say i was enjoying this read. ( )

Book description
True story of the Spokane Serial Killer Robert Lee Yates by Edgar Award winning author Burl Barer. This is not to be confused with Murder in Spokane by Mark Fuhrman although both books are about the same case. Barer's book is accurate, and drawn from the actual reports and files of the Homicide Task Force, and interviews with victims' families and friends.
