The third book in a series I've been reading was released on Feb. 17. The other 2 are Kindleized, but this one still isn't. How long after the hardcover release does the Kindle edition normally come available?

By the way, it's Tuck by Stephen Lawhead if anyone wants to click the "I'd like to read this on Kindle" button for me.

Not to hijack or anything... But another Alaskan?

I'm such a big help!

It varies quite a bit, some come out at the same time and some 2 or 3 weeks later, maybe more.

I'd just keep hitting the request link under the hard copy version

I've seen some out the same day, others...well one in a series I'm reading was in print April of last year and the Kindle version didn't become available until November. Needless to say I made it a point to find the author and send a polite note to him to please, ever so much please, send a very demanding note to his publisher to out a Kindle version one hell of a lot sooner this time.

Yep! Palmer here. Any luck getting Whispernet to work yet? I had 3 or 4 signal bars for a week or so, but it wouldn't connect. Now I have no signal.

I've already hit it 5 or 6 times. Guess I'll just keep doing it. I didn't know if it would register more than one click from the same account.

Hmm Maybe I'll try contacting the Author. Maybe I'll ask him if he can get some of hos older books Kindlized too.

I just mentioned it cuz it makes me feel better when I request it, but yeah I hear contacting the author it quicker.

I'm in Anchorage, and haven't had any trouble with Whispernet. Well, there was the one day it was down for everyone, but other than that it's been fine. Have you gone into town and tried it there? I keep the wireless off most of the time, unless there's a book "incoming," but I usually get the book in just a few minutes after ordering.

Keep clicking.  There was one I wanted a few weeks ago and I think I clicked that link at least once an hour when I was in front of a computer.  You can also use the Feedback button down lower on the page to let Amazon know that you want the Kindle version.
I've seen Kindle releases all over the place compared to the DTB versions.  It would definitely be nice if all new books would have their Kindle counterparts released on the same day.

Haha, I was going to recommend the same thing.

 

[marianneg]

I would contact the publisher directly.

Can't hurt to email the publisher as well - go after 'em from both ends

 

[kevindorsey]

You could just call the publisher and end all doubts right away.

 

[Sweety18]

If enough people request it through the link at amazon, to be kindlized, it might be available on kindle quicker.

Just clicked for you and picked up a sample of the first book in the series while I was at it. I get the greatest book suggestions here! I love the Robin Hood legend (and British history in general). However, I don't want to start the trilogy until the third one comes out for Kindle. These days, I don't want to read the DTV of anything.
