just noticed the HB has hab a bit of a resurgence on amazon, it had tailed away but has now climed back to the 12,900's maybe people contemplating the HB are seeing the HB as only a £1 more so buying the HB...who knows, plenty of reviews on there as well and a very respectable 4.5 out of 5 stars...even though alex marked himself down with a 3...Doh!!
Nice one Al..hope the PB advertising gives this a well deserved boost.

No worries. When October Skies becomes a best-seller, Thousand Suns and Last Light will shoot up again.

| Last Light ranked 1,587 on Amazon as of this post. I'm not sure, but I think that's the highest I've ever charted so far. Yay. |
