TonyMac 720 Posted July 22, 2015 Pleased to say we have just published our first eBook. Softback copies of the original sold-out TRAGEDY: KENNY CARTER are priced at a ridiculous £100 on Amazon . . . but our new UPDATED (two extra chapters and additional contributors, plus new pictures) Amazon Kindle edition is available for only £4.99 - the best value for money speedway book on the market. You can read a free preview of the intro and opening two chapters when you visit our page in the Amazon Kindle Store at: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Tragedy-Kenny-Carter-Love-Forget-ebook/dp/B0128VURS8/ref=sr_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1437559229&sr=1-2&keywords=tragedy+kenny+carter Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OveFundinFan 4,147 Posted July 23, 2015 (edited) So have I. and because it was my first use of Amazon books, and because I am using Android (also applies to ios I understand) I got £5 £3 credit towards my next purchase. Credit has a ending date of mid September. Could well be another speedway book being ordered. Edited the credit. Edited July 23, 2015 by OveFundinFan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grachan 7,364 Posted July 24, 2015 Really enjoying it so far. Bringing back some good speedway memories of the Carter v Penhall rivalries. I've already been over to Youtube to watch the 1981 Overseas Final. Carter's interviews with Gary Newbold really were tv gold. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OveFundinFan 4,147 Posted July 24, 2015 I've not started it yet and probably wont for a couple more weeks yet. I'm not an avid book reader though I bought one about Simon Wigg and could'nt put it down. Actually, I like reading a book on my tablet more then I do the paper version.

I treasure it because I got it from Malcolm himself and he signed it for me. I remember him fondly. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TonyMac 720 Posted July 24, 2015 I have a Tablet - but I much prefer a Book in my hand. I just love Books. So do I - can't beat the smell of freshly-printed paper and a good read while relaxing on the sofa with a light ale or vino blanco in hand. My tablet is Allopurinol, to keep the old 'Salmon Trout' at bay. Trouble is, we have to move with the times. As it is, we're years behind and playing catch-up!

Seriously chaps, I'd really appreciate it if, after having read Tragedy, you would please post a reader's review on the Amazon, in the hope it will prompt others to try it. We consciously wanted to keep the price low to encourage people but it ain't easy this publishing lark (what is?), so any help you can offer by way of reviews would be very much appreciated by Susie and I. On the other hand, if you think it's crap, forget I mentioned it! Thank you. Tony Mac 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
