Wow - that is a surprise. The ebook price is actually less than the discounted paperback price. Not by much, but it's a lot better than the usual situation.

Hopefully we'll eventually also see lower-price bundles of back-catalogue titles.

There are about 80 Agatha Christie Novels and short story collections. I suspect that the publishers are much more likely to sell all 80 in a bundle for (say)£99 than they are to sell 25 or more individual titles to any particular person. i.e. they'd make more money overall.

If I didn't have them all already, such a bundle would be almost irresistible!
