E-Book Pricing Alerts

And any discussion on how to make it happen anyway would be out-of-bounds on this board.

And what if I have a brilliant idea, like held a crowdfunding on this site and buy Amazon, so we all could buy and read those kindle books?

Curiously, for someone whose favorite TOS episode is "I, Mudd," I did not yet have Mudd in Your Eye in my collection. That should be a fun one to revisit once I return to reading in the TOS era.

I'm stuck on Kindle mostly cause I started my library waaaaay back in 2009.

Yeah, back when no one knew what an e-book was...

So S&S has published their sale list for the month, and it looks like the only one I missed in my list above is Vulcan’s Forge, for $1.99.

I always check the lists from Amazon, because I seem to have less issues finding the sale books through search with them. However, it appears I missed this one because there doesn’t seem to be a Kindle listing for this book. Even when I search it directly, I can’t find it. MA has a link to the Kindle version, but when I try it, I just get a “page not found” error.

Not sure what’s going on with that. The discounted ebook is available on Kobo, though.

Yeah, it looks like it’s just an Amazon/Kindle thing. If you click the various other ebook retailer links (Apple Books, Barnes and Noble/Nook, etc.) on the S&S page for Vulcan’s Forge, they all take you to a $1.99 ebook copy you can buy from them just fine.

lol.....well they were around than, and even before than. I remember reading ebooks on a Dell Axim x51v (Windows CE PDA) before I got a Kindle. Crazy how PDAs died but came full circle with the modern smartphone.
