read the book Erewhon and Erewhon revisited by Saumel Butler... there is a segment called "book of the machines"... it blew me away. it was wrote in late 1800s but is coming to be a reality... how did Butler know?
i bought one and....WTF MAN IT WAS AWSOME!!!! it was like a unicorn dance to Aerosmith on a rainbow. It was tasting chocolate for the first time. it was like a good read....but better
i know, i write books myself and i keep getting rejected by agents etc so i now create my books at youtube. will i get signed? no way. check it out anwya: search ego dead on youtube - under user funkatraz
I have no idea what a book trailer is, probably trails a book? In order to do that I just bought it. Still have to wait 14 days?! Where is this book from, Australia or something?
Do you sell it in the UK? alot of people are into these kind of books, with 60 million people living in a country the same size as new zealand which has 4 million your bound to get good sales.
Already bought it. Wouldn't miss it for the world. I'm still grateful for "JG" getting me through that traumatic break-up all these years ago. Still have that email exchange somewhere too ;) Sad thing is, I'll probably read it in a day, just like I did with all your previous novels and be stuck waiting for the next one for another few years ;)
Max everyone knows you use a chain saw to amputate legs you'll need several passes with a curcular saw. I can't wait to read Machine Man, if it's only half as good as the rest of your work it will still be brilliant. I'm glad you're still writing, thought we lost you for awhile. Your work is better than anything the U.S. is putting out and it's wonderful that Hollywood is starting to realize that.
You have no idea how much I love the way to talk.

I liked the preview, I was kind of upset to find it suddenly ending and being told to buy the book.
I don't buy books, I go to the library and get them free.
well I don't actually do that anymore because i'd have to leave my house, but I use the library as a justification to download them illegally.
