I thought I'd have a go at putting my two books which are generally available in print form up on Google Books. (Kate did this some time ago.)

The process was fairly simple, similar to 'Look Inside' on Amazon, but I found it confusing that it kept on saying '0 received', so I went through the process again, ending up with duplicate entries. So my advice is, send off the required uploads then wait a bit. I did eventually get a response and after a few days the books appeared.

It's slightly baffling that they are displayed differently and that Google have made up their own tags, not altogether accurate.

Here are the links:
The Testament of Mariam

A Running Tide

I also notice they say there are no reviews for A Running Tide, though there are several press reviews. They put up two reviews for Mariam. I didn't check, but expect these are two of the five on the US Amazon site, not from the eleven on the UK Amazon site.

Still, it will be interesting to see what happens.

Print copies. I think it only operates for print copies, but I may be wrong.
