Eddings titles coming soon?

crossi · 02-05-2014, 04:14 AM

while browsing Amazon (US not UK) I found this page. http://www.amazon.com/The-Diamond-Th.../ref=pd_ybh_13
Since shows a kindle version and you can even look inside even though it is not yet available do you think that it is finally in process to be released? I've been waiting a long time.

Eddings' complete works are already available on Amazon UK, so nothing to be done for the UK. The usual case of different US and UK publishers.

Yeah, I've been aware of and gnashing my teeth in envy over the UK books for some time. This link makes me think the US will finally get them also. At least I hope that's what the site indicates.

I buy from Amazon US. I just checked and can purchase his titles.

Link, please.

I just tried to purchase Pawn of Prophecy for my Kindle and it isn't available.

But you're in Canada, not the US. It's the country you're in that determines which books are available to you, not the site you buy from.

IF Amazon(US) sells Eddings' books to Canadians maybe it doesn't mean they are coming soon to the US? On the other hand maybe I can take a quick trip to Victoria with my Laptop and buy them?

It probably just means that Canadians get the UK publisher. They do for many books.

I just took a look. Amazon.ca, like kobobooks.com only has a handful of Eddings' later novels. The Belgariad, Mallorean, Elenium & Tamuli series are not available as ebooks in Canada.

Darn. What IS the delay? It's not like they are obscure or not popular. On ereareiq they are among the most wanted.

Is it possible to use a VPN or Proxy with a server in the UK to make the purchase?
