The Amazon-Hachette saga is finally over, with the two companies announcing that they have signed a new agreement for for e-book and print sales in the U.S. The statement says that “Amazon and Hachette will resume normal trading, and Hachette books will be prominently featured in promotions”, which is great news for the Hachette authors whose books weren’t available for pre-order (and when released, the shipments were delayed) during the long negotiation period.
