My book is now available in every Barnes & Noble book stores for $14.95 USD. (Or $13.45 USD for B&N members.) Barnes & Noble.com - Home Page
Also, as you may know, it is impossible for me to know exactly how many books I have sold before I receive my paycheck. (Which should be around the first week of September.)
However, I can have a rough idea by looking at my ranking on several web sites that are selling my book.
So here we go (note that this is my ranking so the lower the number is, the more I sell) :
Amazon (US) : 1,751,593
Amazon (UK) : 313,825
Amazon (Canada) : None... In other words, I didn't sell a single God damned book within Canada.
Here are the different links if you are interrested :
USA : Amazon.com: Overlord: Key to the Freedom: Books: Yan Tremblay
UK : Amazon.co.uk: Overlord: Key to the Freedom: Books: Yan Tremblay
Canada : Amazon.ca: Overlord: Key to the Freedom: Gateway: Yan Tremblay |

The lone "bad" critic was a guy telling me that the narrator was too present (he would have prefered the book to be more "movie-like"). I put "bad" between quotes because the critic was good overall... It was the only point he disliked. Quote: |

I contacted many newspapers and TV/radio stations to try to be interviewed (as my publisher suggested). I didn't succeed... yet. | |

Country: | My copy arrived in the mail today, and I've started reading it. So far it's great. 
I've only now noticed something about your name on the cover though. The N in Yan is backwards. 
I didn't notice that before. | |
