Elke (misspider) | 88 comments The Beast and The Forgotten Tribesman (Roads Through Amelia #1) by Joshua Calkins-Treworgy

There is a "read ebook" link on the book page suggesting you can read the book online. However, it only contains the cover and impressum with a note that you can purchase the book. It says "This is the end of the preview." however there is not even a preview to be found.

The "read ebook" button should be removed or changed to "read sample" or something similar, but only if there is some preview to be had...

As it is, the reader is mislead to believe he can read the complete story online, which is not the case.

Can someone please fix it?

Thanks,
Elke

I see several pages worth of excerpt. And there is no way to change "read ebook" to "read sample".

Elke (misspider) | 88 comments I tried again but still see no excerpt. At first I see the cover page and on the right an arrow link labeled "next chapter". When I click that button, next I see the impressum page with order information for the book. But no excerpt or content.

I tried firefox, ie and chrome in windows as well as firefox and opera in linux, all without success.

I will play around somemore and also try other books, but this is really strange.

Try scrolling down, instead of sideways.
