The Fantasy Art of Oliver Frey Now Out
The Fantasy Art of Oliver Frey Now Out
It's been a long time in coming but Roger's book about Oliver Frey and his art is now out. Go to the Oli Book page for more info and links
It's strange, there doesn't seem to be a massive amount of interest in this. I thought lots of people would be clicking on the banners and ordering it.
Is it because it's primarily an art book rather than a book about Newsfield or Zzap? or is it just because everybody is being good and ordering it from a local bookshoop? (or as the yanks call it, a mom and pop store)
Just curious...

Maybe people are ordering it without clicking on the banners, maybe through a bookshop as you suggest, or just by checking on Amazon without the link? I got Roger (Michael) Kean's book on the Emperors of Rome through Amazon while shopping there for Xmas pressies last year, so I didn't arrive at the page via the Zzap! site - perhaps people are doing this for Oli's book too...
Well I hope it is being ordered. But if people ordered through my site I get LOADS of dosh!! :-E Well around 5% anyway. Do it for the site x-)
I must start checking the Amazon sales rank of it.
[edit]It's rank is 6,007. Hard to tell if that's good or not, since I assume Amazon sells a shit load of books![/edit]

Is Gordon's book still available or maybe just from the "Marketplace"? They normal price things at 1p and then postage is £5 or so, so I made (er I mean the site!
) about .05p from that :-E
More text content in Oli's book would have been great BUT the book is about his art so it's completely understandable. The print quality of the images and paper quality are excellent so the images really do shine.

Just to let you know:
According to Amazon, the book is now dispatched within 24 hours, rather than the crazy 4-5 weeks, which was the case previously.
