Add me to the Peter Temple fanclub. Then visit my crime writing site, which I created in order to publish my reviews of his books. I’ve done six of the nine, three more to go. Why am I doing this? Just for love of the man’s work. Stop by, look around, leave a comment. There are no plot spoilers, as I don’t do plot summaries. http://crimwrit.blogspot.com/

I also read and reviewed this book recently here:

And what captured my attention was that the author not only elaborated with sufficient details on the main aspects the thriller plots but also artistically gave richness to the narrative with writing on the cars, the music, the clothes and life in the 70s.

Good on you for taking the challenge! As an unknown Australian female writer, I’m greatly impressed by efforts to help and encourage others in my boat, as well as recognise and praise the works of established women authors.

Correct. The eBook doesn’t exists it its own right except of course an eBook only book where you probably can claim a different, cheaper price (but there is still design, editorial and marketing to factor in).

99 cent eBooks are 99 cents for a reason….
“Is it a good book?”
“No, but it’s cheap”

So what your saying Jon is that although it might be a little bit cheaper to produce an ebook ie it doesn’t have the physical cost of paper nor the distribution costs (incl. freight over great distances) that ebooks it still has to carry the distribution and materials cost of the paperback as they are treated as the same product?

Pelecanos Rocks! The Oz cover is different than the US version, it is more evocative of the soultastic seventies. Don Cornelius RiP! Keep up the good work Crimeziner
