Lent my copy to a motor industry friend who is too tight/doesn't earn enough to buy a copy and he loves it. Not sure if this is actually a compliment given there'll be no royalties in it for you CF but the thought was there. biggrin

This sounds like a good read.

Is it available as an e-book, that I can download to my phone?

I've developed something of a phobia for printed books and find them cumbersome to carry around compared to the convenience of reading a book on my phone which I always have with me. Particularly as I do most of my reading on the train and don't carry any bags because it's usually standing room only on my commute.

It has gone up since, but I ordered this on Fri/Sat last week for around that price.

Good read so far !

Recently had two copies delivered! Dipped in a few random pages and laughs were immediate. Not to give any spoilers away but spiders in the clouds story was hilarious and quite disturbing as a confirmed arachnophobe myself.

Saving the rest of it for when I am away over Christmas, will help keep me sane at in-laws (they're decent people really but everything at Christmas is on a strict timetable).

Other copy is for a mate with same sense of humour as me...hope there will be many more books CF

I've just ordered mine; I couldn't see an option for an eBook so paperback it is.

First of all, read the book, thoroughly enjoyed it.
Just a quick business model Question if that's not too inquisitive - When you order one from Amazon is it rinted on demand digitally( eg, 1 order, 1 copy), do you have to commit to funding batches, or do they print batches based on previous demand.

I was in on the very start of Book-on-Demand printing circa 10 years ago, but then wandered off in a different direction.
