I don't think it's easy to miss his points most of the time, because he's pretty blunt. But he is really satirical and sarcastic so that may cause problems when you're reading.

The story is great and his meaning is great. Total package.

I actually might consider reading it, it sounds like a good book, and that it wont be boring.
