5Paramedic Buff to Burnt  Jul 09, 2009
I really enjoyed George Steffenson's book Paramedic Buff to Burnt. It was very interesting learning about the day to day life of a paramedic's operation. His stories definitely kept my interest, and wanting more. I am waiting for part 2 of his life as a paramedic, and I hope it comes soon.

2Poor  Mar 12, 2009
I was disappointed with my purchase. It is not very well written. The quality is poor for the cost.

3Excellent Stories, but Where was the Editor?  Nov 30, 2007
I've never enjoyed reading negative reviews, but I felt it necessary to post a word of warning as well as a question. The real-life experiences contained in this book of stories were excellent, but the spelling, punctuation, grammar, and sentence structure were clearly and disturbingly not edited. It is possible that I received a draft or early-release copy of the book, but I wanted to know if anyone else who bought this item noticed this. Feedback anyone?

1Worst Book EVER  Nov 18, 2007
This book is a complete waste of time if you want to read stories about life as a paramedic. The author gives one page summaries of calls. Gives barely any procedural work of the call. I would recommend any thing by Peter Canning if you want to read about Para-medicine.

3Good stories, but in dire need of an editor.  Oct 04, 2006
The stories in this book are fantastic. Steffensen isn't shy about honestly disclosing his faults and failings, as well as triumphs. Unfortunately, the quality of writing is sub-par. These are written in the way that one talks. Stories have no continuity between them and often are poorly paginated.

Like another commenter, my impression was that I was reading a draft version, a very early draft at that.
