I tried to get a look at a paper copy of HFQ in the biggest bookshop in Aberdeen today (Waterstones) only to find they had none left and it was out of stock at the Publishers on their system. After that inordinately long wait to see the book TOR apparently didn't even print enough copies to stay in stock for more than a couple of weeks! Someone over there needs to be hit with a clue stick.

I could be wrong, but I think Orbit is Weber's publisher in .uk .
