I find they are $5 to $6 each. He wrote at least 32 novels. That would be $176 for books I want to quickly read one time just for "nostalgic" purposes. (For illustration only... I know you can't get all his book as ebooks. In fact, there are few.) Why waste money? I could use the money to buy something I really want to get and hold onto......

Hassle? It's clicking a "download" button and I think easier than buying....

Wait, they don't list any libraries in my state, and I know at least one of them have ebook lending now (the one in my library district). Can I edit that in, or can only certain people edit the wiki, and if so, who do I talk to about this? Must spread the word!

Be sure to checkout the Singapore Nat'l library listed under "widely accessible" - You can signup online - it's free.
