    Best advice on literary agents

    This book is the gold standard as far I'm concerned. During the summer of June 2010 I did receive a look from one of the agents I contacted using this book. It's detailed, well-written and most agents now accept queries online only. I loved the breakdown in the back of the book which classifies agents by genre. There is an online database available for free for one year, upgrades with more info are available for a reasonable fee. There is also information about query letters, synopsis writing and social networking.

    Finally - instructions worth reading

    As a fledgling author, I found the information contained in this book to be of great value. So many books circumvent the ordeal of acquiring an agent and making good business judgments. If for no other reason, this book is worthwhile due to the fact that it faces these two major obstacles point blank. Very sound advice. I personally look forward to putting much of the information contained to use. Thank you Mr. Sambuchino.
