Amazon really blew it a few weeks ago when they removed hundreds (thousands?) of books' rankings. It seemed confined to books mentioning sex, even in a relatively tame way like mine. After weeks of complaining, my ranking is back on amazon.co.uk:#3,719,794. The only way now is up!

The good news is, they discounted the price, guaranteeing it to those who preorder. My Japanese friends also don't have to go into debt to buy it; it can be preordered at a discount here.

I am waiting to hear from the authors I listed for my publisher to see if any is willing to write a blurb for the cover. They call it a "strapline." I'd be perfectly happy with something like "It was a tour de force. Now stop bothering me!"
