If you are a complete new beginner, there may be one or two facts in this book that might enlighten you, but if you already have a good concept of basic marketing skills this book will be of no help.Basically, when I read this book, it reads like a commercial for Smashwords.com  I have nothing against the site, but I will say this, doing the same thing on both Smashwords and Amazon have yielded separate results. My books action sell on Amazon, not one has sold on Smashwords. (I even sold 2 on Lulu which is another e-book publisher  by just uploading the file). The main gist of the book, so I can save everyone some time, is to not only publish on Amazon, don't use the kdp program (which I haven't and have been kicking myself for not doing so) and publish on multiple platforms so you have multiple distribution nodes. Thank you, message received in one sentence.There are no secrets in here. And the things that would make you successful are not covered nearly as detailed enough. I am still waiting for an honest, helpful book on e-publishing.
