Quick request...

Are any of my US friends up and about yet? I have a quick request if someone wouldn't mind.

Would someone be a dear and check "Forgotten Soul" on Amazon US for me please and tell me what the price says?
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B005MRAGBY

Amazon is a bit weird the way it won't show me the price on the actual page because it doesn't think I can buy it in the US. I can only see it in group listing pages, so I want to be sure what it's selling for at the moment.

Thank you ever so much.

Thank you, that's exactly what I needed to know. It's still showing up as a price for me - heaven knows why, but it's suddenly being downloaded like mad and I was trying to work out why.

I ask some friends to point out it's a free title on other sites so Kindle would price match and I suspected that is what had happened, but I couldn't see it so I wasn't sure :).

Brilliant.
Wonder why it shows up as still priced on the UK site.

It may be because it's only been price matched in the US because it's was only reported against Barnes & Noble, so they don't have to price match it. That would be annoying, but understandable. Might have to ask people to point out it is free on UK iTunes too.

It's just in time for the second one to come out, which is great. The second one is novella length and will be 99c and then the third one will be a free short story and the fourth one with be novella at 99c etc. I'm hoping it will entice people in.

Not at all, I would love it if you downloaded it :D
It was always supposed to be a free title, it's just Amazon won't let us put titles up for free they will only price match if it available somewhere else for free. It's a pain.
