Archer has sold 330 million copies of his books and thus has no pressing need for money. That however is no excuse for encouraging someone to steal from a writer however successful. What else would you encourage people to thieve and from whom? Anyone who's been to prison?

- alex_hitchins 9y agoI'd buy Jonathan Aitken's book... (A fellow Tory jailbird). I do believe Aitken has somewhat reformed. Archer, not so much. Edit to say that I agree with your point that theft is theft.
- jmnicolas 9y ago330 millions copies ? Let's say for the thought experiment that it was sold only on the European continent (including Russia), it would mean that one in two people living in Europe bought a copy. I find it hard to believe !
- ratherbefuddled 9y agoNot this particular novel, he has written dozens.
- janekm 9y agoHe’s written quite a bit more than one book (over 25). Sales are >250 million according to his website. His books are practically their own genre in the UK, if second hand shops are anything to go by.
- celticninja 9y agoHe also said he raised £52 million for Iraqi Kurds a figure that KPMG said was bullshit. So I would not put too much faith in anything that he says.
- celticninja 9y agoI didn't say that you should steak from someone just because they had been to prison. I suggested stealing from Jeffrey Archer because he is a bit of a cunt who has a very chequered history with the truth and is as dodgy now as he was in the past. Most recently he was likely involved in financing an attempted coup in Equitorial Guinea. Sometimes stealing is ok, in a world where not everything is black and white an inability to distinguish grey is a flaw.
