A grump about a book
A Christmas present from a friend was a book about a Masai policeman in Nairobi, the book is titled "The Sunbird". I very much enjoyed reading this book and according to the blurb there were two more books in this series so I ordered them from Amazon. One has arrived the other is scheduled to arrive on the 19th of this month. Last night I was ready to begin reading the one that has arrived, it is titled "Hour of the Red God". I began reading this book and thought, "hang on, this begins the same as The Sunbird", so a quick skip through and I find itīs the same book ! Further investigation revealed that The Sunbird is the British title, Hour of the Red God is the American title. I am really angry because I have wasted money on a book I already have, not cheap either, I have to pay delivery to Spain. Why on earth do the Americans have to have different titles and why do Amazon put out the "people who have bought this often buy these too", showing the 3 books together, two of which are the same book with different titles?
