In An ULTIMATE WARNING, Captain Bill Morison, a dishonorably discharged marine doctor, undertook a sailing trip around the world with a dancer from a men’s club. He wanted a female companion with sailing experience. Cynthia simply wanted a new life. While crossing the Bermuda Triangle, a gigantic wave capsized the sailing vessel SeaLove. Cynthia was soon rescued by the Coast Guards. Bill remained lost at sea for two years. When found, he had been transformed into an enlightened philosopher with great wisdom over the mysteries of life. He claimed to be the Last Prophet to be sent on earth. Bill predicted the upcoming apocalypse. He was ridiculed until he performed a few miracles. His revelations made him a threat to organized religions and clandestine government. To silence him became a must. As a man, Bill remained a sensual and sexual being. Two years at sea gave him great appetite for food and beautiful women. His encounter with the mysterious nun Gizella, led him to adventures, libertinism and eroticism.

Le Score:

Vous aurez remarqué que la fiche de chaque livre contient un nombre baptisé SCORE.

De quoi s'agit-il?

Il s'agit d'une évaluation communautaire de chaque livre calculée sur une échelle de 0 à 100.

Cette évaluation repose sur une agrégation de diverses quantités qui reflètent la vie de chaque livre au sein de la communauté ScholarVox. Cette vie s'exprime en fréquence de lecture, nombre d'étagères publiques, privées, professorales dans lesquelles le livre est présent.

Un calcul "propriétaire" mélangeant ces quantités vous restitue sous la forme synthétique d'un Score l'intelligence collective incorporée dans chaque livre. Ce Score n'est pas une note scolaire, c'est bien plus un indicateur de l'aura collective du livre.

Car, pour paraphraser Robert Parker, expert ès-notation des vins, " ...there can never be any substitute for your own reading palate nor any better education than reading the book yourself."
