So I don't know if the barflies know the answer to this or not...

Per the Macmillan site, HFQ will be available on 10/13 as a bound book...

Will the eBook be available the same day or will we have to wait?

Tough to decipher the little symbols on the Macmillan site as there's no key for my old eyes to look at.

Weberfan don't do no hard copy anymore ;)

i am sure people already noticed, but i see that the ebook(kindle) versions price on amazon.com is much much higer then the hard cover book.
$36,32 for the ebook versus $15,70 for the hard cover book.

is this some mistake or do i miss something?

i just checked the amazon. uk to be sure and there the prices are also normal, 10,44 pounds for the ebook and 12,91 pounds for the hard cover.

i kinda feels like they switched the hard cover and ebook price on the amazon.com website

FYI: I did an early purchase of the Hardback HFQ when it was announced. Last month I found that because I already had HFQ HB on order, I could get the Kindle version for only $2.00 more and I'm hoping for receipt of this at 00:01 10/13/15! I'll be checking! 8-)
