The pricing has left me mystified.
Paperback: $23.95
eBook: $32.75
It's crazy. eBooks cost virtually nothing to distribute. Pbooks need to be shipped and are bulky at that. Yet the eBook costs $8.80 more.
Why? Can anyone possibly explain this in a way that doesn't sound conspiratorial?
$12.49 at B&N.

Amazon must have got confused about trying to get the pbook price cheaper than ebook for even non agency titles.
OK, you said no conspiracy theories, but I just checked and Amazon doesn't sell tin foil hats, they are coming to get us

Seriously, probably a typo in the upload feed, it'll probably get sorted by release day.
