I Just recently launched a site for a book that I'm currently working on.
Please review the site and let me know what you think.
The site is in its early stage, and will grow as the book progresses.

Thanks keyplyr,

I must of been working over an old html file, and left the previous meta tag in place.
I went ahead a removed all the unnecessary coding.
If you get a chance please review the site again.

Much appreciated.

Fix the closing "</html" tag.

Looks good. I like the use of monochrome (don't ya love the use of a fancy word where simple 'black and white' would do?) and the speed of loading the home page. Obviously you want criticism as well as praise or it would be pointless your having posted the link, so here goes. These are purely personal opinions and are just as likely to be wrong as right. Two things spring to mind:
1) The SKIP button could be a little more prominent so you don't lose anyone that tends to be impatient with animated graphics in general.
2) You might want to make a paragraph break in the second paragraph somewhere. People tend to be unwilling to read long tracts so it helps to create bits of space around groups of very few sentences. Although it would mean shortening the visible text a little to do it, I reckon it would be worthwhile.
Hope this, at least, shows that your request to have your pages looked isn't being ignored by fellow PowWebbers...

Good point about the skip button.
Probably best to move it under the logo.

Thanks
