Does anything seem strange about this book? The format is DRM epub, but the publisher is given as Macmillan, and I thought Macmillan was DRM-free? Perhaps it is an old edition? They are selling another edition, also by Macmillan, this one DRM-free, for $7.99.
I don't know about MacMillan overall, but Tor (sometimes Tom Doherty) is a MacMillan imprint and they are DRM-free.
Also, one thing I've noticed about Diesel is that they seem to be a little loose with georestrictions. I've seen some books that are not available in the US from any other ebookstore available at Diesel. That may be why you're seeing two editions.
