But true, nonetheless. I wasn't criticising Alan, but the fact that Kindle for PC stores its books in the "My Kindle Content" subdirectory of "My Documents" is something that probably everyone who use K4PC as a part of their book processing workflow knows.

What the mystery is - and what Sydney's Mom was asking - is where the Windows 8 Kindle Metro App stores its books. It doesn't store them in a folder. Nobody knows where the heck it stores them (hence the frequent questions on the subject). This means that you can't use the Metro App for the common task of downloading books and transferring them to Calibre.

Fortunately - and as Alan states - you can happily have Kindle for PC and the Metro App installed on the same PC, so using the Metro App (as one might well wish to on a tablet PC, for example) doesn't prevent one from using K4PC for the task of downloading books and transferring them for Calibre.

No rudeness intended in my previous reply, but you have to understand the reason for the question (which many have asked, but unfortunately none can currently answer).
