There's something critical missing here:

Where does one get the book?

There's also no real clue what formats it's available in, though one can guess that "MOBILE" means "pdf" because that is, I think, the only format aside from plain text that can be read by all three of the listed readers ... but specifying which would help. And I suppose links to readers other than their own might be handy for people who want to buy a different one (though the Canadian site for Amazon seems a bit wierd). But ... what about the BOOK?

In short, if I wanted to buy this book (these five books? it's a bit unclear) or even find out if it (they?) was in a format I prefer (epub), where would I go?

What formats is it available in? Just pdf?

Is it DRM-locked?

Thank you.

It was like pulling teeth to find this out. My own teeth.

I buy epubs, but nothing, ever, with DRM. Oh, well. But at least now I know. One helpful hint for the future, though: telling people this upfront, instead of making them jump though this many hoops to find out something as simple as what formats an ebook is available in, would help your sales. Most people look once and move on, and never even ask, let alone fight for every inch of the answer.
