I have a lot of things going on and getting reminders about a book I am interested in keeps it in my mind (and then to ICal) and I will buy, and doing it at the same time enables more people to see enter the charts. I think, as a buyer and reader of books, its a great thing. The next thing I think is to ask loyal fans to order the book in a bookstore. Some stores have a policy to order three copies for every one order made, this way the book gets exposure in stores as well. Love the books, you work a special kind of magic.

I brought my copies on the day, and if my wallet wasn't so thin, I'd keep buying copies! I've also gone to many local (Auckland, NZ) book stores and expressed disappointment that you two very well known and superb authors are not stocked on their shelves. I will say they've all offered to order it in for me. Keep up the amazing work! Amazing result people! I brought my copies on the day, and if my wallet wasn’t so thin, I’d keep buying copies!

This was a historic day in a historic time for book publishing, and I'm proud of the way you two conducted it. I'm also proud to have been there to watch it happen. When we look back on the development of free, on-demand audio as a tool for building book sales and enhancing the communal relationship between writers and readers, we'll see you, Scott, Seth, Mur, and Hutch in the vanguard. <em>Bravi!</em> And rightly so.

Congrats on the staying power at Amazon beyond just the day, on the rally of your two other titles, and on the fabulous debut for the two new novels. It was a pleasure to watch it unfold.

I was (secretly) tracking the numbers at work throughout the day and was thrilled as I saw you jet your way up the charts. I've been a long time fan (in podcast years) of your work, and am just now wrapping up the Chasing the Bard podcast. I wish you continued success with the Case of the Pitcher's Pendant and your future work. And the same goes to Pip for Digital Magic and everything she has yet to share with us. You have made a mark for podcast fiction and both of you should be proud! Cheers! Congratulations on an incredible run for both Pip and you!
