Leviathan Falls is "receiving the biggest print run yet"
Good idea! Rob's blood pressure owes you one.I bought the print edition of Leviathan Wakes years ago, but I've read most of the rest of the Expanse novels in digital format. I decided to order the hardcover for Leviathan Falls from my local indy bookshop (they need the business), so I guess I'll have to wait a bit longer now.
I see shortages of many consumer products these days, so I don't disbelieve that books are having the same issue, it just seems odd.

I was able to do the same until yesterday. I wonder if they are rolling out changes.
