Purchased. Apologies for totally failing to participate in the market research exercise, but apparently I will happily pay £2.05.

Acquired. Will probably get a real version too when it comes along...

Eight weeks to wait?
For an impatient materialist loving the hardware will be quite tiring!
I hope it's not gonna be to difficult...
Thumbs up!!

As well as the free Kindle reader for your operating system, whatever it is, there's also a "look inside this book" thing on Amazon that shows you the first few pages.

Well that was excellent. Highly recommended. I will leave a five star review.
Possibly even with my real name...

^^It was partly frustration borne out of the ephemerality of writing bicycle haiku(s) and limericks on here that drove me to narrative verse. Still, it's hardly an epic - I wouldn't expect any contemporary reader to have to wade through reams of verse. That's just cruel.
^Glad you liked it :)

There's a typo on page two by the way ;)
(Sorry)

The cover's beautiful.
I'll wait for the paperback.

@Fox - yeah, I know. I just couldn't be bothered with any more revisions. At least it's not in the actual verse. The typo's not in the print version, so after you've bought that you'll be able to rest easy again.
@Oliver - Faith says thanks. I casually asked if she could think of some way of combining the logos of the big 3 a while back, and she hand drew the hybrid* font :)
*not 'hybrid' as in fixie with gears

I don't think anyone will care, especially as, like you say, it's not even in the actual text. I am hoping these rare early editions with the typo will be worth at least fiddy dollars when you have sold warehouse fulls like J.K.Lol.Rowling...
Anyway, review left but I'm afraid I forgot to mention the illustration, which is beautiful.
I look forward to the paperback!

Woops, no I don't. I'm waiting 8 weeks apparently. :)
Kindles don't dissolve when you read them on the turbo- better than paper (in that application)
