First review

Here's the first review of The Osiris Ritual, George Mann's hotly awaited new novel. George's wife and I spent a very pleasant Saturday mostly in the garden with our children whilst our respective husbands signed and packed the slipcase editions which you can now order!

I would suggest buying it from Amazon at the moment as they appear to have lots of money off it, plus it boosts our rankings. (Sorry, everyone who's not Amazon.)

Ordered from Amazon.
I understand the bit about the ranking. I had assumed you made more money if I bought it direct than if I bought it from amazon.


We do, but I couldn't in good conscience advocate you buying it for £30 here when you can get it for £21 on Amazon. Which explains why I'm poor, probably.


Since I read The Affinity Bridge and The Shattered Teacup I'm a fan of George Mann.

I sent pre-order for The Osiris Ritual, The Immorability Engine and Ghosts of Manhattan to amazon.de I hope, George Mann will write manny, manny books.

And Of course I read the great review you mentioned...


Ordered! Can't wait...


Just found your website - never heard of you before, but will revisit. Brilliant design


Just placed my order for the special edition... looks like they're a bit confused on Amazon, though - still a pre-order but "released 1 July 2009"??


Appreciate your reasons for promoting Amazon, but would make the point that independent sellers play an important role in promoting books online. Independent booksellers are often better geared to selling to overseas buyers.


And this morning it arrived - lovely, lovely book, and now at the top of my to read pile.
