My Personal Review:
To the writer wishing to enter the Christian Market, fiction or non-fiction, this book is essential.
I appreciate the thorough information on publishers and agents. For example, if one is interested in learning about a publisher, at a glance they can learn how many submission they receive annually, how many first time authors they publish, and how much a typical advance is.
If one is interested in an agent, they can learn how many clients they represent, whether or not they are represented by the industry and so forth.
The best feature about this addition is the CD Rom that's included. The ability to pull the up the list, change it to a large font and delete those you're not interested in reading about is wonderful.
