Almost 30% of US sales for Larsson's latest were eBooks

Wonder if it would have done as well if it was an Agency priced book. |

This is interesting, thanks for posting it. I notice that the novel is #1 on Amazon's bestselling print books as well as the non-free Kindle list.
With the hardcover going for $11.92 vs the Kindle ebook for $9.99, price can't be that much of a factor. Are we already to the point where, given rough price parity and the same first-day availability, 30% will choose to buy the ebook instead of hardcover? Interesting indeed. |

This was one of those incredibly rare books that I was prepared to buy in print format as the e-book version was not available when it was released back in October. |
