Great!
I ordered this book for my son as well as two other titles. The website was very user friendly and the titles I needed were easy to find. A representative from the company was nice enough to call me to make sure the format I had chosen was correct and I was e-mailed promptly to confirm my purchase and very soon afterward to alert me that the books had been shipped. The titles arrived so much earlier than I expected. Thank you for your excellent service. I will certainly order from you in the future. C. Barker
