I watch that guy on youtube on his own channel "vlog", dunno why though, he seems more interesting compared to other people.

Got my copy yesterday evening, when I got home from work. This is an Unbound book (unbound.co.uk), which publishes on a subscription model - if enough people want the book, the author can get it printed based on pre-orders. This is a utopian novel by Robert Llewelyn (of Red Dwarf fame). Interesting so far, but I only got to read the first few pages, as we had dance class and didn't get home until late. http://unbound.co.uk/books/news-from-gardenia/ |

The copy I got wasn't signed - I had bought in at the signed copy + audio + e-book level. Contacted Unbound and they were apologetic and thanked me for being understanding that mishaps happen and they are sending out a new copy, with signature. |

I got the signed copy sent per courier yesterday. Result. Unbound are very nice people. Also got the Kindle version and audio book version from my "shed". As I now have 2 copies and Unbound aren't asking for it back, I've decided to give the unsigned copy away... I'll even pay postage. Do we have any big Bobby Llew fans here on the site? I'm wasn't sure how to give it away though... First come first served? A little unfair for those that don't crawl out of bed until the sun is over the yard arm. "Tell me in 100 words or less..."? Hmm, will people be upset if I take somebody elses entry? I've decided to hold it open until Sunday morning. PM me by 07:00 (UK time) Sunday morning if you are interested and give me a short (vote sized) reason why you are the bigger Bobby Llew fan and/or why you want to read about Utopia. If I have several entries, I'll put up an anonymous vote on this thread, which will run until Monday evening (assuming I am not inundated with PMs). If you want to change your text, I'll take your last PM as the final text. Generally, should I update the thread with how many people have entered? Only users registered on the forum before this post goes live are eligable - in case this post gets crawled and people start registering just for the book... Vote decision is final, in the event of a tie, my decision is final, no hard feelings. |
