Code Name Verity

[Elizabeth]

It suddenly occurs to me that I ought to give this a mention here! Code Name Verity is my new book, released early in Feb. in the UK. It's a Young Adult thriller set during WWII - the heroines are an Air Transport Auxiliary pilot and a Special Operations Executive agent. Lots of flying sequences which ALL involve women, hopefully without too many terrible technical goofs.

If you pick it up, hope you enjoy it!

Does it have an ebook available to us in the States?

[Elizabeth]

the Kindle edition of the UK book does appear to be available from Amazon in the US. We bought our Kindle in the US and didn't have any trouble downloading it, so technically I think it should work for you too... If not, it comes out in May in the US and shouldn't be a problem then.

I'll have to wait. On my end, it says "not currently available." :(

[Elizabeth]

aww, too bad!

[Elizabeth]

actually, there's an off chance you could get it from the UK store. I didn't have any transatlantic trouble downloading Ride for Rights (which I am enjoying!). Who knows how these mysterious things work...

[Tara]

I've never bought from the UK store...but I will see if I can. I know Ride is listed in both stores. For some reason, when a book is released on Amazon, it's also released on Amazon UK, but not vice versa. It doesn't make sense.

[Tara]

I've pulled it up..only it doesn't say "deliver to Tara's kindle," but deliver to kindle or wireless device. It's different. I'm going to try to download a sample first and make sure it goes to my kindle and not..I don't know where. LOL Never seen it set up quite like that.

[Elizabeth]

hmm. good luck!

[Tara]

It didn't work. You have to have an Amazon UK account and to have an Amazon UK account, you must have a UK address. (That's what I was told. I'm trying to verify that.) I'm very confused as to why it should matter. However, I got a message saying that it was not available "for my country." Why should it matter?????

[Tara]

I may have no choice but to wait till May. I can pre order it on the regular Amazon, but still have to wait till May. Grrr!!!

[Elizabeth]

really pesky. Oh well - I will remind everyone in May! thanks for trying. something to look forward to, maybe!

[Tara]

Yep. It should be automatically delivered to my kindle on its release date now. I just have to wait for it. LOL p.s. I like the British cover better. The little airplane.

[Elizabeth]

I like it too. The airplane is a Spitfire!

[Tara]

Love the Spitfire!!!!!

Code Name Verity was a great book (Not just for young adults), and now I am eager for the sequel to come out in paperback in about a month!

[Chris]

Didn't know there was a sequel. I did enjoy Code Name Verity for the most part.
