Best app for writing a book?

Documents to go or officepro suite would be my recommendations.
Just out of curiosity, what kind of book is it?

I got office pro suite for free as an Amazon FAOTD. It saves as a word document, so i usually email or usb transfer the files.

Yeah officepro is a good one, you have to pay for it though and I don't think you can sync your stuff with the computer if you want to work on it as well, at least not as well as Evernote, but it's a good option too
Good luck with your book
Cheers guys will give them all a try. Sure one will work for me.
Here's the prologue if you like it let me know.
A darkened room four floors up overlooking an abandoned street in Croydon. Rain crashed against the windows, like waves smashing against a ship in a deadly storm. Would this be where the inevitable demise of a turmoiled Sam met his end. God knows, after all he had been through over the last twenty four hours, he didn't have the fight left in him to make it out alive.
A bolt of lighting struck the building, knocking out the power and plummeting Sam into darkness, which he had been longing for for some time now. A earth trembling rumble of thunder shook the building to the core for what seemed like a life time. Then nothing.....silence. From out of the silence, foot steps could be heard in the distance ever getting louder and closer. Sam wasn't concerned by whoever was coming for him. After all this was his hunting ground and he had seen so many come before and all of them had fell at his hands.
The sound of footsteps echoed throughout the building and quickly filled the hallway outside. Every thing fell eerily silent once again. Sam was cornered with no way out, but his facial expression had not once changed over the last eight years. He was a calm and collected killer, with no regard for the smucks sent to kill him. He knew what he needed to do, and was yet to fail. He was the perfect killing machine, But maybe this time he had underestimated his enemies....
"Too late now" Sam muttered to himself as torch lights eclipsed the door frame. The door burst open and bright lights engulfed the room.....

Sorry my first try at writing a book. Thought how hard can it be lol only ever read half a James Patterson book and got bored. other than books years ago in English at school. What would you suggest, would meet his end be better?

Would this be were the distraught Sam (last name) would meet hours inevitable demise?
That's one way to word it. It was the order more than anything. Always reread it out loud.

His demise is his end, so "Would this be where the inevitable demise of a turmoiled Sam met his end" doesn't actually make sense.
"Would this be where Sam met his demise?" or "would this be where Sam met his end?" would make sense. To write noirish stuff well put down the Patterson and pick up some Chandler.
Anyway.
On the same note, and sadly accepting that I'll probably be writing much less interesting things than a novel for the foreseeable... is it possible to work using dropbox as if it were a local folder? That is can I open a doc in my dropbox folder on my Note 10.1, work on it, save it, and then pick it up on another device via dropbox as well? So far I've not worked this out but it would be the most seamless way for me to work the way I'd like to.

Use drop box Sync You can set it to automatically back up a local folder to dropbox SO One reflect the changes in the other
