Ahead of the book, titled The Testaments, release, Amazon mistakenly sent some 800 copies to the readers. This caused a major uproar by independent retailers, who demand the e-commerce site to be penalized.
“A very small number of copies had been distributed early due to a retailer error which has now been rectified,” said Penguin Random House on Twitter.
However, various retailers are upset over the ‘mistake’ and demand the publisher to penalize Amazon for the mistake.
