There's a typo in the Wiki link for this book.  It should read :  
     http://klingon.wiki/En/AprendeKlingon 
That's *aprende* with an E.

But while searching the Wiki I stumbled across "Klingon Moderno para Brasileiros" :
     http://klingon.wiki/En/KlingonModerno
with the Klingon translated by Lieven himself.

I just discovered a new book avaiblable on Amazon, and getting to the
point: It is useless. Do not buy it!

It's all in Spanish, and it claims to teach the Klingon language. But it surely does not. The first paragraph looks quite complete and correct, but then, that author says that word order is like in English "SVO" - definitely wrong. Also, all translations are wrong, and actually, everything else is wrong too.

At some point, it really appeared to me that the author intentionally created wrong information. A quick check-back on bing shows different results, so why would he make such a nonsense book? -- Probably just to make money, or maybe it's even a person who wants to fight against the Klingon language. After all, "Juan Ortiz" is as obvious as "John Smith"
in English, so we cannot find out who made this useless, incorrect book about Klingon.
