Yesterday evening, Amazon informed Bloomsbury that they would no longer sell Bloomsbury print books in the UK, Europe, and Australia, or Bloomsbury ebooks worldwide from midnight. We have been in discussions with Amazon over terms since last summer. At no point during these discussions did Amazon say that they would take such action. We learned about this at the same time that Amazon issued a public statement and was contacting Bloomsbury authors and agents. We have now reached agreement with Amazon in order to ensure the continued availability of our titles on Amazon.
