I'm buying Unfit For Command this week.
Good luck on getting a copy. Even on line orders are shipping in weeks, not days. I ordered mine on the 16th, and it hasn't shipped yet, but they are still saying delivery will be within a week from today. However the site (Amazon) says that orders put in today won't ship until at least the 1st of next month. I'd say sales have been "brisk", in the same sense that Hurricane Charley was a "brisk wind".
Today, I stopped by Barnes & Noble to verify what I have read here, and it is all true. I went into B&N, looked around and did not find it. After browsing for what I was really looking for, I approach a clerk behind the counter. I asked the pony tailed guy if they had Unfit for Command, and he said he was just reading about it. He said the publisher had screwed up and was not available yet. He also mentioned there was no conspiracy, as B&N would want to sell it so as to make money. Another clerk came up and said that 4 were on special order and asked if I wanted to place a order. I said no, and told the both of them that I will order it from Amazon.com. Oh and by the way, the back counter behind the pony tail clerk, was lined with My Life. (I thought about refutung the clerk on conspracies, but why argue when I will take my business elsewhere.)
Now why on earth would he make a statement like that?
