you do not very clearly indicate what the real content is:
the heading is "another preview chapter of ...", then, when reading the actual text you have some blah, then FOUR links which do NOT point to the article/chapter in question.
only on the LAST WORD of the next paragraph is a link to the preview chapter, which is mentioned in the heading and thus the point of the whole entry.
to make matters worse, the FIRST link has "preview chapter" in it so it seems that this is the actually interesting content, which it isn't.
this is just a heads up to the editors: please try to have in mind what you want to present to the readers, ie what the main points of the article should be. it is quite contraproductive to clutter the article content with numerous links which don't carry the information and then have somewhere hidden the main link (the stsh is also a good example).
e.g. do it like this:
<heading>new preview chapter of blah</title>
<p>a new preview chapter, <a href="link to the chapter">"Overview of OpenBSD"</a>, has been made available.</p>
<p>previous chapters <a href="old-news-entry">were discussed at undeadly</a></p>
<p>the book is available from <a href="amazon/foo/bar">amazon/foo</a>
just as a proposal how i think it would serve the readers more.
thanks

I'm not knocking the latter though; both are good.

I have Abs BSD and Abs OpenBSD. Both cross over a lot but are useful.
on a side note Michael Lucas has more errors, English wise. Which, correct me if I am wrong, is odd because he has a degree in English ;)
