Or, if I lived in the US, get the paperbacks from Amazon for 8.97 and 9.98 respectively. Is it Kobo, or have the publishers gone mad, pricing e-books higher than the printed versions?
I don't think this is just kobo. I noticed the prices for a number of books I have been following have increased in the last couple of weeks. This has been at both amazon and kobo, so it might be a publisher thing.
