Amazon continues its battle over terms with Hachette Book Group, removing the ability to pre-order a number of titles including the new Robert Galbraith novel. They are listed as 'currently unavailable' instead of the 'pre-order' option.
Amazon likes to remind us regularly why independent booksellers are to be treasured and supported. The behemoth did it again last week, when its efforts to bully a major publisher into granting it better terms became public. Many books published by Hachette, one of the 'big five' U.S. publishers, are now being listed as available only in a few weeks, sometimes up to five or six weeks--an eternity in today's fast-paced world and in effect a delisting. This artificial scarcity is a cynical effort to punish Hachette by choking sales.
Books-A-Million, Inc. (BAMM) today announced that it continues to proudly sell all Hachette Book Group titles. Hachette Book Group is a leading trade publisher who's bestselling authors include David Baldacci, Sandra Brown, Stephen Colbert, Michael Connelly, Jeffery Deaver, Nelson DeMille, Tina Fey, Malcolm Gladwell, Chelsea Handler, Brad Meltzer, Stephenie Meyer, Joel Osteen, James Patterson, David Sedaris, Nicholas Sparks, Jon Stewart, Scott Turow, Brent Weeks, Tom Wolfe and many, many more.
