Has anyone's dc read this book?

It's on ds2's list of challenge books to read. He's been waiting for it at school for several weeks and is still waiting. So we said we would buy a copy.

He went to the library yesterday to see if they have a copy, but they don't.
Today we have looked in (small) Waterstones, WHS, small independent bookshop, Tescos ...?!

It's just been announced this week for World Book Day that it's won this prestigious prize, and there are no copies to be had anywhere.

Is this very poor distributing/marketing. Or is rather canny like Nintendo always having a shortage? No doubt they're reprinting with a 'prizewinner' slash across the cover.
