Is this for the back cover of the book?
Someone suckered me into doing that for the Slash book, by dangling some limpid prose and daring me to edit it. It wasn't that bad. Maybe I'm a sunshine artist.
Having reviewed several books [wgz.org] in the past, it was easier to ask "Who should read this book?" and "What kind of information is the book supposed to cover?"
Of course, there's also a quote from Rob Malda [cmdrtaco.net], so you might not want to take my advice.
