Doctor Syn from B&N
I've just noticed that B&N have a Nook version of the complete Doctor Syn stories for $0.99.
Two points worth noting: the author's name is misspelled as "Thorndyke" (rather than Thorndike) and while the author always used to spell out "Doctor" in full in the book's titles, it appears here as "Dr".
This may be a permanent price, but it was nevertheless a surprise to me as most of the six titles included don't seem to be available separately.
The books aren't at all politically correct (unless these ones have been revised from the original printed text) but they will appeal to any reader who likes the odd bit of swashbuckling and piracy on the high seas.
