Unfortunately, the fact that a book would not be profitable for a traditional publisher implies that it does not have a very large potential audience. Therefore, the chance I fall within that book's audience is relatively slight.
I'm far more interested in indie books that might have been quite profitable for a publishing company, but were published independently by the author because he or she wanted to retain a higher percentage of royalties.
