Sadly ... there are no Star Trek books I want to read! (1) there are too many new ones (2) they don't have any of the ones I want to read. PRIME DIRECTIVE for instance... (3) any recommendations?

That link is for Prime Directive. So yes they have it. I just typed in the title and it found the ebook. |

http://www.simonsays.com/ That is the home link for the site. I don't see how it can be so hard to use. |

All formats they support are restricted formats. In light of this, all their books are overpriced. I'm not seeing any eBook for $1. They are all at least 7 times their value, and in many cases, no cheaper than the paper version. |

I was meaning to answer your above question: Quote:
I could have been clearer in my earlier post. Guess that's what happens when I try to post too quickly. Sorry 'bout that |

The sale is only at Siomon & Schuster's web site and they have LIT, Adobe, and ereader formats available. LOT is the best one to get if you want to be able to convert it. You can break the DRM and then convert it to some other format that hopefully your reader can handle.
