Getting it on iOS worked quick and easy, but on a Fire (which they say it works on) is a different story. Tried opening the link from the email in the Silk browser and it says to "Please download your book on your mobile device". I had to follow the Fire link on my iPhone to find out the app URL, then type that into Silk to download the apk. Then I had to email myself the acsm link from my iPhone and paste that into Silk in order to download the book to their customized BlueFire app (it also gave me the option to download into Mantano, OverDrive or PocketBook since I have those installed as well). More hoops than I'll ever jump through again.
It downloads an ePub so there's no reason why they couldn't allow desktop downloads if they wanted to. I tried logging into their site with it's new store to see if there was a library somewhere, but it says my account email is invalid. I even signed up again through the site instead of the app and got the same error. Looks like things might not be ready for prime time.
