Any info on when A Memory of Light will be available on iBooks?
It will be a few months, I’m afraid. Harriet’s decision, not Tor’s or mine.
Will A Memory of Light be on iBooks on the 8th?
No, I believe it is April. Harriet insisted. I tried to get it simultaneous. This was the compromise.
Why such a delay for the ebook release?
Harriet is uncomfortable with ebooks. She wanted a year delay. We talked her into a few months.
Super annoyed that ebook versions of A Memory of Light don’t come out until April 9th. Own all the other books in ebook form.
I wish it were our choice. Harriet insisted.
Wow, anger about the ebook is brutalizing those Amazon ratings.
Always does. I wish they would realize Tor couldn’t change this, nor could I.
A Memory of Light is out today! Yay! On my way to the airport after a brief night’s sleep. See some of you tonight in the Twin Cities.
Really??? Then why isn’t it on my Nook?
Harriet insisted it be delayed on ebook.
Did anyone ask her why no ebook? Did she answer?
She is worried ebook sales would cause the hardcover to not sell enough to hit #1 on the bestseller lists.
I disagree, as does TOR, but it is her decision. Longer explanation on my blog tomorrow.
A Memory of Light not available on Kindle until April? What a stupid decision.
I’m afraid my hands are tied. Harriet insisted.
I have to say I didn’t realize till this morning and was quite bummed. No more physical books get bought here.
I also do not buy physical books any longer. Just found out no Memory of Light ebook and I’m disappointed.
See the end of my blog post today.

See the end of my blog post today. Nothing I can do, I’m afraid.
Thanks for your openness. This says “rankings are more important than readers”, but your explanation helps.
Well, Harriet doesn’t get ebooks. She thinks they’re like paperbacks. She figures if paperback readers will wait, why not ebook readers?
Just read about reasons for no ebook… There are now illegal copies everywhere… I am waiting to buy but am very disappointed.
I am very sorry. Wish I could do more.
Any idea when the Kindle or Nook edition of A Memory of Light ?
April. (Explanation on my website. Terribly sorry about the delay.)
