After reviewing my contract for Threshold, to be sure that what I thought was true was true, that Roc had to ask my permission before licensing any electronic version of the novel, I spoke with my agent, who spoke with my publisher. Turns out, my publisher specifically requested that their books not be included in Amazon.com's searchable database, but Amazon did it anyway. How sweet. And illegal. My editor assures my agent that steps have been taken to have Threshold removed from the new database. I assume Amazon will have enough sense to comply (though why I assume that, given their history, escapes me at the moment).
