Mr M.
Good morning!
I've just started the Light Ages by Ian R. Macleod and noticed that you've been quoted on the cover. I'd be interested in any comments you have on the book (or perhaps you could point me in the direction of your review (if that is indeed where the quote came from).
Which brings me to my question:
I was wondering whether reviewers have much control over how they are quoted on book covers. For instance, an author may give an overall negative/critical review, but the only quote that appears is one positive sentence (misleading the reader to some extent). Do you have any control over this?
Cheers
PS Not to suggest any "misquoting" with the Light Ages. I've just started it, but it seems OK so far.
