The Protocol Celebrates Two Months as #1 Best Selling Men’s Adventure on Amazon UK

A quick update since some have been asking:

• On October 12th I tweeted that The Protocol had hit #1 in the UK, and it has remained there almost every hour of every day since. I’m extremely pleased with this, needless to say.

Here’s a few more:

• Depraved Difference has sold over 10,000 books and has remained pretty much consistently in the top 10 Police Procedurals in the UK for three or four months now. It peaked at #59 overall, and today was around #106 overall, out of almost one million books. Not bad for a nobody!
• The Protocol in now a best seller in the US as well, currently #15 on Men’s Adventure, and #39 on Spy Stories & Tales of Intrigue.
• Brass Monkey is now a best selling the US and UK, currently #88 on Men’s Adventure in the US, and #25 on Men’s Adventure/#36 on Spy Stories & Tales of Intrigue in the UK.
• Reviews continue to pour in, and with a few exceptions which I don’t take personally (you can’t please everyone!), they are almost all 5 and 4 star. Currently all three books have an average rating of at least 4.5 out of 5.
• A new milestone: On Apple Canada, Depraved Difference is in the top 10 of featured mysteries on the iBook store, and shifts between #1 and #2 on the What’s Hot list of Police Procedurals. So for those of you with iPods/iPads, you can pick it up for only 99 cents and read it with the iBook app. Just go to the Store in iTunes and search
• The new book is almost done, but I lost almost six weeks this second half of the year due to various health issues, the latest a two week doozy (is that a word?) of a cold. This means my hoped for Christmas release will be delayed, but hopefully only slightly.

I’d like to once again thank the over 14,000 people who have purchased my books and helped make this author’s dream come true. You have my humble gratitude.

Regards,

Rob
