The Eerie Adventures of the Lycanthrope ROBINSON CRUSOE
« on: August 17, 2010, 02:39:14 PM »

Classic of English literature + :cthulhu: +  :pirate: = The Eerie Adventures of the Lycanthrope ROBINSON CRUSOE





If you must be marooned on a mystical desert island with one book this year, it should be this one.

Any questions?

I would also like to point out, from an educational point of view, that if you read The Eerie Adventures of the Lycanthrope Robinson Crusoe instead of Defoe's heavily-edited version, you could still probably score a solid B on any quiz or test about Crusoe.

Petition your local school to carry it today.   :)

This cover is now available for purchase at Amazon!   

Plus, if you order now, your cover will come with 270 pages of words and story abslutely free!   :)

Can you afford to miss an offer like this?  I think not.

Read the story of Robinson Crusoe the way it was always meant to be-- dark, creepy, and itching at the back of your brain.

It's out?  I didn't know this.  Excellent!

Order it directly from Permuted if you can (that's my plan).  Small presses benefit most from direct sales, or so I've heard.

I will never, for the life of me, be able to understand Amazon sales rankings.

Brand new book.  Several people ordered it over the weekend (maybe they're lying to me, but I'll give them the benefit of the doubt), and yet the book continues to drop in sales rankings.

This will anger Great Kathooloo.

I'm pretty certain that at least 1 person ordered it or there wouldn't be a ranking on Amazon at all.  ;)

Well, in the past thirty-six hours The Eerie Adventures of the Lycanthrope Robinson Crusoe has made a 500,000 point leap in the Amazon sales ranks.

Which, if I understand their formula, means three more people bought copies...  :D
