The new store, managed by a German team, features popular titles such as Susan Elizabeth Phillips' "Die schonsten Fehler meines Lebens," "Der alte Konig in seinem Exil" (Arno Geiger) and "Der ultimative Ratgeber fur alles" (Dieter Nuhr).

GROUND-BREAKING GERMAN READING APPS
As part of the launch, Kobo has developed free German-language apps for iPhone®, iPad®, iPod touch® and Android(TM), with a PlayBook(TM) app coming soon. The apps bring a next-generation reading experience to users. Kobo's German eBookstore debuts today at www.kobobooks.de with German-language best sellers, attractive new releases and classics that are part of the 80,000 title German eBook library.
