Pratchett is a UK author, so why can US residents buy the books and EU residents can't? Can anyone see what is wrong with this image?
And...why can I buy the book without problems from (for example) Booksonboard???
Maybe his UK publisher is one of those that Amazon couldn't reach an agreement with? Looking at WH Smith's ebook store they have no Pratchett books available either, maybe his UK publisher hasn't put them out yet.
