Wasn't sure where else to post this so thought to post it here.

I have noticed that a number of the high count posters are from Australia and this post is aimed at them.

I live in Brisbane and have noticed that for around a year or so now, when new FR novels are released bookstores do not get them immediately. It takes at least six months for the book to come out. By bookstores I mean QBD, Dymocks, Bookworld/Angus and Roberts.
For example, before I left for holidays in early August the most recent novel available from these bookstores was Realms of Elves.

So I was wondering is this occuring only in Brisbane or the other cities in Australia as well? And if it is occuring, where are the Australians getting their novel fix from?
I purchased a number of novels while I have been on holidays, but still have the Fighters series to get and the new ones when they come out.

Galaxy Bookstores is a reliable source for me.

Milsims is reliable for FR and DL novels also, but they can take quite a while to ship in older novels.

Tin Soldier and Galaxy Books in Sydney stock the FR novels they ussually get them in between 2 and 4 weeks after the books released in the US

In terms of the 'chain' bookstores, yes they take ages to stock the various titles. I use my local RPG/hobby store for novels that I really want and find that they are about a month behind the USA.
