Amazon UK to stop selling Bloomsbury's books
Amazon UK has said that it will cease selling Bloomsbury’s print and e-books from midnight on 23rd January, saying negotiations between the giant retailer and the publisher had broken down.
A statement put out by the retailer explained that it had been unable to negotiate new terms with the publisher, despite extending the contract. Bloomsbury has yet to comment but the action could seriously wound the publicly-quoted pu]blisher, and re-open old sores between Amazon and trade publishers over trade terms.
...
It is also a high risk strategy for Amazon, which will disenfranchise a number of Bloomsbury’s bestselling and high profile writers including Sarah J Maas, Gillian Anderson, and JK Rowling. The move extends to the publisher’s print books and Kindle titles, though Amazon stressed that customers could still buy print titles for third-party sellers off its site. Print books sold off its US site are not impacted.

Unfortunately, the latest extension expires at midnight on the 23rd January and after that time, Amazon will no longer be able to sell Bloomsbury print books in the UK, Europe, and Australia, or Bloomsbury Kindle books worldwide."
