Alistair MacLean has a number available, but not all of them (in the US). I maybe have to see about buying from the UK Kindle store next week when I am in London.
But this type of thing is why some revert to torrent sites. I admit I picked up a few Heinleni books elsewhere, but I buy them as they become available through other outlets.
There are a few other authors where this is also the case.
Hey, for someone in the UK are the 633 Squadron books available in ebooks form in the UK?

I think this may have been one of those books that was briefly available at Amazon and then got pulled. There were several books that came out in tzw format (i.e. basically just the scanned images of pages). I got several books like that (one of the Dorsai novels, Heinlien's Glory Road and Norton's Witch World to name a few), way back when I first got my kindle. They were eventually pulled and some have recently made a re-appearance in a professionally done format. I'm not sure if they were pulled because the original version was so poor, or because the person who put them up wasn't the rights holder
