Hi Christer, congrats on the book, seems there are real issues with Amazon UK.
It's now gone to paperback only available via marketplace sellers, and Hardback not available at all.
I spoke to Rickard at the publisher and he supplied me with a link to buy direct from publisher.
It must be frustrating for you, having put the hard work in, for the launch to have an hiccup.
A shame you are not planning to issue it as an Ebook.
Best of luck with sales

Hopefully Amazon will have their own copies to sell shortly.

Yeah, and it looks as though the marketplace sellers are charging £4 - £5 more than the publishers RRP.

I do hope that any issues with the sales can be sorted. Sorry for any inconvenience in that regard.

In my experience any delay in getting "Amazon copies" listed on the Amazon website is solely down to the vast numbers of new books they receive each week.
I'm sure that it will be resolved soon.
Cheers!

I was able to order last week, but have since cancelled with Amazon.
The point is the paperback is now only available to order via, third party, dealers, not directly from Amazon.
These have a huge Mark up, and a delivery date of late March. So I suspect they do not have copies at this time.
I have seen it before on Amazon. Once saw an Egyptology book, price £35, offered when it was delayed at a price of £985.00
Sure it will get sorted soon.

I believe Timaios will try and resolve any problems as quickly as possible.
Surely an Egyptology book priced at £985.00 must be written by Chufu himself? Or solve the Ripper riddle - was the Mummy the killer...?

Hey Fish, all,
Eye-rolling revisitted: Torsoman and Jack were two persons!!11!1
I've just spent loadsamoney on the hardcover, now I hope I will find out what made the busiest of the London killers tick. It better be convincing, or else...!!
Seriously though, congratulations on your book, looking forward to a good read.
