Yes, yes, I know. I've already been told I'm a cynical distrustful bastard.
You are indeed. You are not alone.

If the concept is so wonderful I would expect a free downloadable sample (just a chapter) of one of the public domain books they offer. (Most of their catalog -- like King Solomon's Mines -- is available from Project Gutenberg or the MobileRead download section.) If the execution of the product is as good as the two people who have posted here about it say it is, then the sample would prime the sales.

Since they do not have a sample available, I choose to not spend the two and a half pounds for a pig-in-a-poke of a book I already have.
