I was planning to get the 5th edition of the Unix and Linux System Administration Handbook, but I noticed that the 6th edition is available for pre-order on Amazon, listed with a release date of January 2028. I reached out to Pearson for clarification, and they confirmed that the 6th edition (ISBN: 9780138169404) is actually set to be published in April 2027. I hope this information helps anyone else curious about the release!

Are they writing this new edition without Evi?
Thanks for the update! I can't find the pre-order on Amazon in the U.S. yet, but it's available on the UK site.
Yes, Evi isn't involved this time, just like in the 5th edition. He went missing back in 2013, and the last edition came out in 2017.
