Today's the street date for the trade edition of JACK: SECRET CIRCLES. For those of you who pre-ordered this edition from Amazon, please post here if/when it appears. (In case you didn't know, Amazon and MacMillan, the parent company of my publisher, are having a tiff.)
Even better, write to Amazon and demand to know what they're gonna do about getting my books back up for sale.

My copy of SECRET CIRCLES has shipped according to Amazon, so they better not by lying.
I'm guessing that the pre-orders should all arrive as expected. The tiff with McMillan and Amazon removing their titles and all that exploded over the weekend. Amazon probably had the copies of SECRET CIRCLES in stock and ready to go before the weekend.

I hope you're right; I'm in the same boat.

We all know that B&N don't carry FPW but Borders has been pretty good at keeping him in stock. Went to the Borders website to reserve a copy at the store near my house to be picked up after I finished work. The site says that Secret Circles is not available in stores. WTF?
First, all the BS with Amazon and MacMillan, and now this? What's going on here?

Ever hear of The Otherness, dezboi?

But they have. How many folks have purchased elsewhere now? How many sales will be lost period?
We readers are simply pawns.

Yep, glad I pre-ordered, and got it in my hands already. I see today all your books are still listed on Amazon, but only through third-party sellers, and not through Amazon.com directly. That means no Kindle versions, for right now, but the Kindle version of Ozymandius I already bought still shows up in my Archived Books.
