Query: Avoid this book

I downloaded the eBook version of this novel on Smashwords. It was nigh unreadable. I tried, but there were so many grammatical errors, continuity jumps, and lack of clarity that I could not finish. This is the first book in decades that I can say that about.There is the essence of a great story here, trying to get out. I just can't see it.
