The most recent book in that series that has been translated into Estonian is The Devil's Star (Marekors); hardback, 2011, €24.75 (~$32.5 USD). There are no other editions (no paperback, no ebook).

€25 is about the average price of a new book here (hardback or paperback - generally not a lot of difference and we don't get later cheap reprints or mass market paperbacks). Second-hand books (recently published books) are not necessarily much cheaper - something like €15 for a second-hand chicklit published ten years ago isn't unusual.

Average new e-book is around €15 but this is still pretty hard to say as ebooks are a fairly new thing - it's still only a minority of new books that get released as e-versions (I think there are maybe 1-2 publishers who seem to be trying to release as many books as possible also as ebooks, translations as well, and only seriously since last year).

The average person earns maybe €500 a month, for comparison. (Median salary is €662 a month, gross, i.e. before income tax.)
