Brad Patton asked Tim Butcher:

Tim: Just for you information. Chasing The Devil Kindle has not been available here in the US for at least 5 years I have been searching for it that long. Could it be that Amazon Kindle messed up by offering the Chasing The Devil by Sheriff Reichert and mistakenly took yours off as a duplicate? Think how many sales you have missed by this mistake. Thousands.

Tim Butcher How to break an author’s heart: to hear of sales lost through a glitch. If only Amazon was named after a real river like the Congo, then things would no doubt work better. I will try to get to the bottom of this and thank you for being so helpful in pointing it out. Off to nurse my wounded heart…..TimB

Julie asked Tim Butcher:

Tim, wanted to thank you for your book Chasing the Devil. I've been to Liberia twice in the past 2 years. Our church has been involved with the work at Ganta Hospital for >10 years, so I've been able to make some solid connections there. Reading your book took me right back to this land I've come to love. Any plans to return there? Or are any of your other books set in West Africa?

Neil

Neil asked Tim Butcher:

Tim - I've just this minute listened to your stint on Radio 4's 'Bookclub', which was originally aired in 2011. What a fantastic programme - very informative and you came across as passionate and genuinely concerned about the future of Congo. I'm now listening to a few other archived episodes as I avoid completing another project brief while sat in a dull, sweaty office in Khartoum. Do you fancy a trip down the Nile?

Allan Schulz

Allan Schulz asked Tim Butcher:

Tim - I thoroughly enjoyed your original take on the origins of WWI in "The Trigger". The way you were able to weave your experience from the Bosnian War in the 90s added a further level to one's understanding of an important subject. You may have to ask Bosnian Tourism for royalties as you made the place seem most appealing to an adventurer! What do you plan on writing about next?
