Which Kindle do you have, Mr. Ploppy? Font size/type problems are showing up on the KF8 Kindle devices (Paperwhite, Kindle Touch, and now the Kindle Keyboard with the recent 3.4 update, which brought KF8 to that device). I don't know if the $69 has the issue. The line height bug is a known problem on the devices.
As jswinden mentioned, the issue shows up when authors/publishers hard-code the font formatting (size, font type, etc.) for ebook body text. They should not specify these settings so readers can select their own preferences.
I suggest that you report the problem to the author/publisher if you have a way to do that and/or report the problem to Amazon via the link at the bottom of the ebook's product page there.
