December 21, 2007: This was a great book. I look forward to the entire series. However, there were lots of racial labelling and sterotypes of insignificant characters. How come someone has to be Latino or Black-why not just simply say their name and leave it that? Their race was a non-factor as well as the characters. If that continues through out the series, I will refuse to buy anymore. I love sudoku and so do Blacks, Latinos, Asians, Irish, and everyone else in the world. It may be okay to say where someone is from but to add in a sterotype is just insulting!
