Where, for example, would I find the terms of service for Kindle ebooks (not Kindle devices or apps)?
A quick search on Amazon gave me this link, I hope it works for you.

One quote from it: "In addition, you may not bypass, modify, defeat, or circumvent security features that protect the Digital Content."

Is it legally enforceable? Ask someone else. Is it an agreement that you should honour? Ask yourself. Do you regularly make even verbal agreements that you intend, even as you make them, to break? Is there not some obvious way to still have what you want (the novel) and not make an agreement you intend to break? (eg: buy the paper book)
