Re: Lucene in Action hits desk in UK

Hello,

I've asked the publisher ( http://www.manning.com ) yesterday.  I don't
know about the exact stores, but apparently they do have a distributor
in Singapore, so you should be able to find Lucene in Action there
soon.

Hopefully the dispatch time quoted by amazon.co.uk will now start to

It's been interesting watching the price changes.  When I ordered my  
copy back in November, I paid £19.38 for it.  At around the time of  
publication, the price went up to £35.99, the list price.   It's  
currently priced at £25.19, 30% off list price.

I noticed the price swing at Amazon too. I find the best price at  
www.bookpool.com at US$27.5. Great book by the way. Not just about using  
Lucene but touches on a wide range of background and related topics as  
well.

They probably don't know how to type a Ä.  How _do_ you pronounce your 
name?  I've no idea what to do with that mark over the final c!  At the 
moment it's "Lucene in Action" by Eric Hatcher and Otis 
Gospo-something-or-other :-)

Anyhow, enjoy Lucene in Action!
 

Already doing so!

Publisher -> Amazon information feed seems to be a fairly manual
process, and Amazon takes a while to update book information on their
site, including prices.

I contacted both the US and UK Amazon sites and asked them to fix my
last name (the last character in my name has a little slash (not an
accent) above it), but they never bothered to fix it nor email me back.

Anyhow, enjoy Lucene in Action!
