Query: This book is an insult to any reader&#65533;s intelligence!

The book promised to be "a novel of deep terror"... Well, the plot itself comes from quite an imaginative person and, therefore, the events picture themselves in your mind with ease. Unfortunately, the terrible language spoils everything - dialogues are dull and simplicity of characters is truly unbelievable. It wouldn't be too much to say that this book is an insult to any reader's intelligence. I'm still puzzled about two things - 1) didn't Mr. Alten realise himself how bad his novel was and, therefore, have enough decency to shred or, at least, to re-make it (latter would be hard work...); 2) how did he find a publisher who accepted his work!?
