The Daughter of Time by Josephine Tey

I'd love to have this book in mobipocket format - free or not.

It was published in the UK in 1951, and the author died in 1952. Is it in the public domain yet?

Regards, Alex

I'd like to have HarryT (in all his spare time -- snork) do the D'Artagnan Romances in Mobi some time. I keep seeing it in the lrf format and try to get it on my Kindle with no luck. So:

pleasepleasepleasepleaseplease

I'm willing to debase myself further if necessary. 8?)

You need me to come over to your house and wash dishes while you're concentrating on this, the most important of all tasks?

Yes, but there is no Three Musketeers for my Kindle at the end of the washing up!

Actually, I could use someone here to do the laundry. I do not like folding and putting away the clothes.

Sorry, Wolf. It's not you. Really.

I'd just rather hang out in ZP's apartment being read to as I do her dishes.

It's a really scary thing that I'd rather hang out with HarryT, doing his dishes while he does the D'Artagnan books.

Ladies and gentleman - the "lounge" is the appropriate place for off-topic discussions. Please keep this thread for what the title says - requests for Mobi books.

Thank you.

Several of Josephine Tey's books have recently appeared on PG Australia. I've converted them for our upload section.

Has "My Secret Life" by Walter been converted to e-text yet? The first edition was published privately 1888-1892 in Brussels. Grove Press brought out a complete edition in 1966 in the US, and Arrow Books published all 11 books in 3 volumes in 1994 in the UK.
