Downloadable Dreams


Since making a post on the Penguin Blog a week or so ago, I've been chatting on-line to one of the copywriters there. She was saying that she liked The Suspension Bridge, and was thanking us for our interest in the The Glass Books.

I cheekily told her that she should give us an exclusive like a juicy excerpt of the book, and to my surprise she said she'd see what she could do. Not thinking anything would come of it, I forgot about it, until today when I was sent a PDF of the first chapter of the book! That's right folks (in a Pete Tong style) this is a Suspension Bridge exclusive, exclusive, exclusive.

By putting this up here I'm obviously oiling the wheels of the Penguin marketing machine, but what the hell, it's not every day that one of the worlds most famous publishing brands gives you a sneak preview.

I'm afraid the first chapter of the Glass Books is no longer available for download.
Sorry!

Nice work! Just read the chapter, once I got into it thought it was great - the synopsis on Amazon certainly doesn't do it justice. It all gets pretty action packed towards the end, can definitely see why they think it'll be a great serialisation.

Do you reckon you can talk them into giving you Chapter 2, or am I going to have to fork out £25?

AHHHHHHHHH! Got halfway through and then closed the window by mistake, now I can't seem to download the PDF again. What's happened?
Clearly a good 1st chapter if I'm this upset by it...

In 1998 a particular blue pill came as an angel that rescued all those tormented by the demon of erectile dysfunction. That blue pill was christened Viagra. Since then viagra has completely changed the scene of the treatment of ED. Nowadays one can even buy viagra online. Customers are reluctant to buy viagra from the local chemists for a varied number of reasons since the availability of viagra online. In order to lure the customers the online pharmacies also offer cheap viagra.
