Thanks for this link. I really hate it when Web site splash screens fail/refuse to show you what they're about unless you sign up.

And sorry, but the page-flipping animation immediately puts me in a critical mood: it's not even subtle, it's a really over-the-top one. It blocks highlighting/selecting text, which negates the main value of reading electronic books: immediate access to dictionaries, encyclopedias, and reference sources.

I don't like the narrow, san-serif font. A good san-serif font can be quite clean and readable, but this one is too narrow IMO.

The drop cap words look terrible, typographically, misaligned and jarring. I don't understand why you're (inconsistently?) using drop cap words, initial drop caps, and paragraph headings without drop caps. The style is all over the place.

The animated illustrations are great! They add a ton of useful information to the text.

Thanks! I'm glad you liked those... :-)

I too prefer clean san-serif usually. For this one I chose a narrow @font-face to do some analysis. No worries it's just a demo book.

It's not a splash screen. It's a plain home page with a direct link to the about page at the center. You don't have to sign_up to learn about us or me. In fact you don't even have to sign up to read the entire book there!

Here, let me relink it for you: https://bubbl.in/about

If it's a book then page flip is a must. There's is no escaping that. Else it's a slideshow. But I do know a lot of people who prefer slides/powerpoint presentations over books.
