The Truth About Literary Agents is a sometimes humorous introduction to the world of literary representation, with profiles for both agents and their clients.

Read how good agents are best placed in the industry to make money for themselves and the writers they represent. Also read how a few bad apples employ questionable tactics, making promises they never had any intention of keeping.
Getting the right agent can be tough, but getting a publishing contract without one can be a whole lot tougher.
