The Mirror Image of Sound

Readers of The Mirror Image of Sound will recall the character Samir in Brazil.  There is indeed a Samir (he is much younger though almost as wise) and he does indeed live in Brazil (though not in Rio de Janeiro) so the character was named in his honour. I was very happy to see Samir's review in Amazon recently and I thought I'd share it with you! Click here to read it . If you want to make a reader very happy this Christmas (old or young, female or male) the time to buy and ship a copy is right now!

No sooner did I think the bubble had burst than the readership resumed its climb! Spread the news and help me get The Mirror Image of Sound the recognition it deserves!

We have another 5 star review  of The Mirror Image of Sound, this time by Bailey Mantukit of the UK.  Thanks Bailey!   If only we had the chance to try another life .... ,  October 3, 2015 By  Bailey Mantukit This review is from:  The Mirror Image of Sound: A novel in real time (Kindle Edition) This is the first book I've read by Dan Djurdjevic, and it won't be the last. I empathised with the main character, Dan, being "stuck" in a marriage, providing for his selfish wife's spending habits. Upon his Uncle's death, Dan inherits something seemingly mundane as cowboy boots, but that's only the beginning. The reader is taken on a journey in real time in Australia. My imagination was working overtime as to what could possibly happen next. I found myself neglecting household chores in favour of reading this book!

The free download promotion is now over and I find myself happy that so many took advantage of the offer (last count is well into 3 figures) over the 5 days. But more than anything, I find it heartening that the book really does live up to its name of being a page turner!  Kindle has this amazing feature that allows you to see whether it is being read.  The first night figure was 507.  Since then I've had a steady flow of 60-70 per day.  Given that it was serialised online (where it built up an average readership of 17,000 per day at the very end) I'm not surprised. I can't help but notice that my only critics so far have been people who (by their own admission) have read only a couple of pages free online.  If you're one of these, why not give the book a proper go?  You might be surprised.  The Mirror Image of Sound is nothing if not full of surprises!

Some time ago I wrote about how The Mirror Image of Sound was being pirated.  In particular, I came across a German site that had links to downloading illegal copies of the novel.  Judging by the volume of reviews, these downloads must have run into the hundreds. Well it's great to see that a German site has now picked up my free download promotion of MIOS so the people there can download it for free - legally. What's more, MIOS is in their top ten of free download books! There's just the small question of whether there's anyone who has yet to download a copy... :)
