I've just talked to someone from a major website (you'll see) who asked me about doing a review--asked, because they have a large readership and knew that it could be "an adversarial experience." I'd wanted to bring this up anyway, so it's as good an opening as any

Unrelated to your post, but just a heads-up...

The wonderful Play.com (who are quick and reliable) are selling your book for £5.99 with free delivery to the whole of Europe.

Good luck with it - did you notice you were #17 on Amazon? :D

Not sooo quick and reliable... I preordered it with them but they don't have any in stock. *taps foot*

[samuti]

:/

That must have been really annoying for you! *shakes fist in their direction* I have to say though, I've never had any problems with them. I pre-ordered the book and it's arrived today - but it's at home and I'm at work *whine*

I've had far more issues with Amazon really.

[elyim]

Yeah, I agree, usually they are great. Much better than Amazon, and cheaper, too. I can't shop in "real" shops anymore now - "People are paying HOW MUCH for a DVD?!?" XD They must just have had more people preordering this book than they anticipated. *wiggles fingers in a magical way in their general direction* Post my book, you!

[samuti]

I'm with you in not shopping in 'real' shops anymore... the prices are insane! *cries of poor student* I do still like the atmosphere though, walking into a bookshop and being able to touch and look at the books. More often than not I'll pick up a book and read it over a Starbucks. :)

*agrees with cries of poor student* Yes, I too share that blight. However, I still seem to spend an insane amount on books :D.

Ditto. That's why I bought it in the shop full price and cancelled my order :p

Heh :) i just discovered that as well. Could only pre-order though.
My only hope as I live in Denmark, the bookshops of which the book will probably not reach this side of the next Ice Age.
