It's a shame you did not use my webshop to buy your copy, I get $3.21 cents more per copy sold through there, over the amazon sales. Those buggers wanted a larger commission to let the book be sold on their site. :AM



Cheers, Thor

Got a copy, review-thing being;

"The Gunny: The Saga Begins", by Mr. Kenneth Dickinson, is by far one of the books that I have enjoyed most this year. Though I've been reading others constantly, fiction and non-fiction alike, this one has been wonderful. Reading non-stop at any available time, it told the story of a Marine from the past and his cohorts- the outcasts of the post-apocalyptic world, alongside the citizens and, in some areas, the antagonists, the book delivers a great story and is altogether a wonderful reading material. It took me about two weeks to finish, due to family things and other busy times, but every minute I could spare to read was one where I was enthralled by the tale and trying to figure out more about the set and area of the book. I would highly recommend this book to my friends, or anyone who enjoys fiction in general.
