Jo asked Stephen Taylor:

I found my book being sold on a site that I had not authorized. They were illegally selling it. The book had been pirated. I asked to have it removed from the site and it was. What did you do?

Stephen Taylor I certainly don't feel motivated to take on Amazon. If the seller (via) Amazon has got hold of a second-hand book I can't see anything illegal in that. I understand that some sellers say that they can supply all books (that's why they quote £24,99) If they get an order, then they will approach my publisher or me. It's annoying but no different from Bookshops taking an order for a book they do not have in stock. There's a sale at the end of the end of the day, I suppose, even if it drives other customers away from my entry.
Why would you think your book has been pirated?
