Code:
while ( $# )
	ebook-edit "$1"
	shift

and everything worked swimingly.

Further details, for others who might want to do this, in the Automator dialog:
Shell:/bin/csh
Pass Input: as arguments

EDIT: I should have realized, but this script will only take books dropped on it. It does not launch the program independently. That's ok for me, but you may have a different work flow.
