Not to pick on you, but since several people seem to lack confidence in this area, here's a foolproof way to make an Amazon link to any product. This is what I use any time I need an Amazon link on the website I maintain.

First, start with the site itself: http://www.amazon.com/ (If you're using .ca or .co.uk or another variant, use that.)

Next, add "dp/" - it stands for "detail page": http://www.amazon.com/dp/

Finally, look on the product page (or in the long URL) for the ASIN, which for ebooks should be a 10-character code starting with a B and containing numbers and capital letters. For The Book of Cthulhu, that's B006QO1A1M.

Combine everything, and you get a concise link: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B006QO1A1M

And that's all you need to do!
Now that is a useful tip. Thanks!
