Wool - First Shift: Legacy [Spoiler Alert!!!]
I have just finished First Shift: Legacy and found it excellent, and a step up from the previous installments in terms of the strength of Mr. Howey's writing, not that there was anything wrong with #1-5.
What I do have is a question on a plot point - the very end of the book, so please do not look at this if you are intending to read the book. Spoiler:

Yes, I do find the not knowing how far from the end of an ebook you are a bit disconcerting (I know there's the percentage, but sometimes the book finishes at around 95% or in some cases sooner). Quite a number of times I've had that "Oh, was that it?" moment.

I really want to read this but I can only find it at Amazon. If I buy it there, will I be able to convert it so that I can read it on my Nook? Is it DRM free?
