It's at #12 in Lulu's overall chart for the week and #1 in their chart of entertainment books. Really quite astonishing!

...and I in turn say thank you for your part in the book and that without writers like yourself, the book wouldn't exist... So, pat yourself on the back. As long as doing it doesn't cause a mischief!

Hi Alan,
The paperback shown, has the wrong text in my section - do they know it's wrong and that you have altered it. The book can be read on the Amazon page.

I've just finished reading the book and it lived up to it's name, as Tis Magic indeed !! I thought I was pretty well informed on all things Catweazle but learnt quite a lot whilst reading it. The lovely mix of writing styles and different viewpoints taken by the writers just make you want to find out what the next person has to say. An excellent, very well presented record of the love that we all share for our favourite wizard and all those who made the magic happen. Well done Alan.........10/10 !!! Dougx

Hi Alan,
Do you know how many books have been sold at the moment?

Post by Alan Hayes on Dec 7, 2019 12:34:18 GMT
I do and it's very encouraging. While I won't be announcing actual sales figures as that information is confidential to Hidden Tiger, I will shortly be announcing some very good news about the first donation to club funds as a result of the sales of the book.
The book has done very well in its first month at Lulu and it's first weeks at Amazon.
Remember, if you would like the book but don't want to order online, your local bookshop should be able to source a copy for you if you quote the appropriate ISBN:
Hardcover: ISBN 978-0-244-52656-6
Paperback: ISBN 978-0-244-52916-1

Wondrous and encouraging news regarding the sales of Tis Magic..
.. and, of course, you can order 'Tis Magic' at your local independent bookshop or WH Smith / Waterstones (other good bookshops are available lol) , by quoting the ISBN number.
Let's let the bookshops know 'Tis Magic' is out there.
.. and ask your local library if they have a copy.. and if they don't, quote the ISBN and see if they can get a copy. If they can't, how about donating a copy to your local library.

Libraries are precious, magical resources and I would be humbled and delighted if libraries added our 'little booook' to their stock.

I'd be very grateful if anyone who has bought and liked - or disliked - Tis Magic could please review or simply give a star rating for the book at Amazon. www.amazon.co.uk/dp/0244529167/The book's raised just under £500 for the fan club at this point and a few reviews could help us break through the barrier. Thanks.

Carol, Alan and Gary,
I would like to gratulate you and all the others with Tis Magic. These last two weeks I read the book. It's a great publication and brings back all those memories from 50 years ago. A period with no video or DVD. I was lucky to live in Maastricht (southern part of the Netherlands). Here we could also receive the Belgian and German tv-channels. As a kid a was able to watch all the episodes from both series 3 times! Thank you for making Tis Magic with the drawings and photo's we all now so well.
Greetings from Maastricht Your brother in Magic, Sermon
