Reschedule your Kindle pre-order book
To set a new release date for your Kindle pre-order book:
1. Go to your Bookshelf
2. Click on the ellipsis button ("...") under the Book Actions menu next to the book you want to update and select "Edit Details."
3. On the "Your Book" page, under Step 4, "Schedule a Release Date," click "Edit Release Date."
4. Enter the desired date and click "OK."
5. Scroll to the bottom and click "Save and Continue."

Moving up a release
If you move up the release date for your book, you will need to submit and republish the final version of your book at least 10 days before release, and all customers who pre-ordered the book will receive the content on the earlier release date.
Delaying or cancelling a release
You can postpone the release date for your book one time, as much as 30 days past the initial release date. Customers who pre-ordered the book will receive an email letting them know that you have delayed the release of your book.
If you choose to cancel the pre-order, you may unpublish your book from the Bookshelf. When you unpublish a book in pre-order, you will be unable to list any book for pre-order for one year.
Deadlines
Delivering your book on schedule is required for you to retain access to pre-order. You will not be able to update your book 3 days before the release date. If you delay or cancel a pre-order book, you will be unable to list any book for pre-order for one year.
