   I registered at the Quest website for the free eBook version of the book, but since the book has been published, haven’t heard anything. Are they still going to send links on how to get the book?

   You’ll likely need to follow up with Quest. But I’ll check on my end to see what i can learn.

   I also registered for the free e-book and haven’t heard anything and it’s been well over a month now…

   Rick,
   I’m assuming you are referring to the Quest e-book offer. If so, you’ll have to contact Quest about that. If it is something you registered for on a SAPIEN site, then please send an email to sales@sapien.com with the details.
