Greg,

Just out of curiosity, how many pages did the book end up being? Sorry if you've already answered this before.

Hasan, ebooks are deceptive regarding size. Some use big print and large spacing to make them look much bigger than what they really are, but more usually, they appear smaller than they would in paperback because everything gets compressed. A better guide is word count. Mine is 48,001 words. 

The average book is 80 to 90 k in word count - so this is a bit more than half the size of the average book, but will end up a third of the combine book when it comes out. In short, the full thing will be a bit bigger than average. 

Hop that makes sense.

Ebook should now be available tomorrow from through Amazon and a day or two after that through B & N, Smashwords and Apple.

Congratulations on getting it out, Greg! Just a couple of days shy from my one year anniversary of being a member of the forum. It's a perfect anniversary "gift"   

Unfortunately, I don't think I can start reading it any time soon, as I have to work on my follow-up essay to my review of With Malice. I will definitely be reviewing it on my blog once I finish reading it. Again, congratulations!

It does make sense, Greg. Thanks for that.

FWIW Amazon has it as approx 203 pages.
