“It’s becoming a better time for rock all the time at the moment. I think the great thing is there’s so many new rock bands coming through as well...”

What The Critics Said:
As Rock ‘N’ Roll Mercenaries is another self-funded/print on demand book I decided not to purchase copies to send to reviewers simply because there is only a limited audience for this one. (With POD publishing authors don’t get complimentary copies/free copies to send to the press – you have to buy copies yourself! You can one free copy and that’s to check for any mistakes before it becomes officially published…) Financially, I thought it would make sense just to send out press releases rather than spending a small fortune buying and posting a dozen+ books. Many writers have done it this way especially those who have published books through the American POD company lulu.com.
