Volunteers required for Something a Bit Different

[Bluecube]

As you can see from my signature I've written a book. I finished the follow up quite some time ago but never got round to proofing it as I've been working on the third book in the trilogy. So I'm looking for some picky volunteers that enjoy reading scifi/ fantasy fiction and can spot a plot hole at a hundred yards. Hopefully you can also pick up on spelling and grammatical errors although these should be few and far between! Although this is book 2 there is no requirement to have read the first book to follow the plot.

The book is 226 A4 pages long so it's not War and Peace. The background is that it's the late 1930s. Upon discovering Atlantis at the end of the 19th century, the British Empire kept a firm grip on power over the following years. However, a resurgent Nazi Germany is threatening the peace with the United States of America sabre rattling in the background... John Murdoch, MI6 agent, is caught up in the action.

What do you get out of it? Fun I hope! Plus satisfaction that you've read the book loooooooong before anyone else. I'll also include your name in the acknowledgements if you wish.

If you're interested the let me know. I can only send the book out in pdf format as I don't have the resources to print out a number of paper copies.

Cheers!

EDIT: For everyone interested - Make a post here to let everyone know how brilliant you are at helping and drop me a PM with your email address so I can forward the pdf onto you.

do we need to read the first one first to get the idea of whats going on, or straight into the second book.

Not sure if you misread or overlooked but...

[Moby-Dick]

Sounds like a good idea - I've got a week off work and there is a book shaped hole in my life If I like it, I'll buy the 1st book !

[Lee H]

I'd be up for that seeing as my TV diet is nothing but Sci-fi or documentaries looking at Sci-fi and things related like Atlantis and stargates

[tiggerai]

As per Moby, I'm halfway through a week off, so I'm sure I can fit a book into my nighttime schedule.

[alsenior]

i'm all in if your after another reader. it's not like i do much at work anyways

[schmunk]

I'll give it a go - I can read on the train to/from work, rather than watching a film / playing sudoku...

[0iD]

I'm in, book free till payday so It'll do nicely

[Lucio]

More than happy to volunteer, I'm an avid reader and will typically clear a book of that size in a couple of hours

[Bluecube]

Blimey! Lots of volunteers!

If you could PM me your email addresses I'll forward on the pdf. Thanks all so far!

[SiM]

I'll have a go, though its been a while since I last finished reading a book...

[Bluecube]

Cheers SiM. Drop me a PM with your email address and I'll forward the pdf onto you. Cheers.

/me steps forward

[ikonia]

I did miss that, thank you. Perhaps I should better phrase my question.

Is the second book a continuation of the first

In the same way star wars and empire strikes back are, eg: you can watch empire without having seen star wars and it's a good film, but its so much better when you know the back ground of star wars.
