Just pre-ordered some Nero Wolfe Kindle books on Amazon - then noticed the delivery date = Jan 2015. Dear God - has the publishers' Agency Model gone this far??

Yes, but the price is only $9.99! What's a 5-year wait for delivery when you can get $5.01 off the publisher's list price?

Seriously, that's bizarre. I wonder if the delivery date is a typo? Let us know what you find out. I'm a Rex Stout fan also.

Fingers crossed for you DixieGal.

You do sometimes wonder whether the people in the hospitals realise what these things mean to the person waiting. My Mum's waiting for results of an ovarian cancer scan - it just seems to be dragging on forever.
