...if you'll excuse me putting it that way.

My copies of The Judgement Book have just arrived, hence the excitement and the rather odd title for this blog.  It's like being a child on Xmas morning!

It all looks rather good, in my humble opinion.  You never quite know how a book is going to turn out until you hold it.  For all the proofs you get sent of the cover, the only way of really knowing how it'll come out is when you see it.

And I'm very pleased with this one.

That, incidentally, is why I think these electronic book reader things (spot the technophobe) will do ok, but never make old fashioned actual physical books disappear.  There's something about holding a book in your hands, the smell of the paper and the feel of it, plus the stack by the side of your bed, your little personal collection of reading, which is irreplacable - to me at least.

Or is it just me being an old codger?!
