I wrote it and I say it myself, it is unique, and there isn't anything else available remotely like it at the present time. Thanks Edward I appreciate your input. |

I have visited Oxford many times and thought I had covered most of it, but there were things in your book I didn't know about. Good luck with selling your book ! |

It seems that the two sites are not linked for reviews. Not sure if you realised this. |

Will watch it, but that said the 'Brits' generally have little or no interest in C S Lewis and so it seems if there was a 'better' site for it to be posted to, then it would be the .com site as Ruth has done, for our friends across the pond. |
Edward Lever Posts: 734 Joined: 22nd Dec 2005 Location: UK | quotePosted at 09:29 on 10th August 2013 The UK and US Amazon sites do not appear to link the reviews. I have not tried uploading my UK review to the US site. In principle, if my UK log-in works on the US site, it should be possible to copy and paste the same review on to both sites. Maybe I will give it a try later. |

I put my review on the site from the link at the top of the home page of POE, I wondered where your review was. I'll have to have a look at this and make sure it goes onto both sites. |
