Many other critics reviewed it as well, also saying it would be available that day because that’s what Amazon told us. It wasn’t there. I started rattling Amazon cages on Friday, finally got a response on Saturday from the PR guy saying he’d look into it. I finally heard back on Monday, and here is the deal: “The ‘Fearless’ launch date has been postponed. No further updates are available at this time, unfortunat­ely. We will touch base as soon as we know more.” Obviously, Amazon is in chaos at the moment, after several high-level resignatio­ns. That’s the only conclusion I can come to. I’ll let readers know if and when Amazon schedules the show.
