I've been to HarperCollins site and they list no eBooks.

Another reason I believe these to not be legal is that The Crystal Cave is using the UK cover (legit eBooks in the UK). Also, when you do a look inside, you see straight quotes. The legit UK version has the usual curly quotes. The illegal version has a full line to show section breaks. That's not how it's done by Harper Voyager.

I see many indications that these are illegal and no indication that they are legal. They appear to be scan/OCR copies. So don't buy these just to get a cheaper Audible copy. That's aiding an abetting since you now know the eBooks (in the US) are not legal.
So contact Mary Stewart's estate, HarperCollins, and Amazon, all of which have lawyers.

I absolutely do not "now know" the e-books are not legal. All I know is that you happen to think so.
