Its goodbye to Book Depository;
a classic tale of market consolidation;
started in 2004 by ex #Amazon employees, it was bought by Amazon in 2011 & retained as a separate unit (to give the unknowing the appearance of a 'competitor' to Amazon's domination of the retail #book market)... and now its being closed, as cost-cutting trumps the need to pretend there is a more competitive market than there is.
While its now owned by #privateequity I always use #Blackwells for new books

Delighted to announce A Song of Winter is being reprinted just 50 days after first publication!
Thanks to #Waterstones #Toppings #Blackwells #Indies and all you brilliant #readers and #reviewers for your support.
Who knew cli-fi would be so popular? (and no, it doesn't stand for a specialist brand of porn as one blogger asked – good luck in finding it) 😂
