It hasn't been in mine.

"Rapture Ready" from Scribner is $17.50 Hardcover, $11.39 Paperback, and $16.99 and standing at eBook form. (Used for $2, $3, or $4 depending on the edition.)

$17.50 for a hardcover sort of makes sense because as people have said before, you were paying for the immediacy. Not bringing the eBook down to match the paperback is, in my opinion, unacceptable.

Maybe the bestsellers are coming down on eBook prices, but the backlist and the lesser known books are most definitely sitting pretty at hardcover prices in many a case.
