Once Amazon is made aware of the questionable legal status of an ebook, they are no longer protected by the safe harbor clause. Tying a pirated ebook to a legit audiobook would also increase their legal liability if Lady Stewart's estate decided to sue over the matter.
Rather interestingly, none of the reviews claim that it's a pirated version. Usually, with a questionable ebook, people who care enough to review the book, are the first to point out that it isn't a legit copy. With the Zelazny ebook mentioned above, the reviews were all "This is a pirated copy, don't buy".

These may possibly be good enough forgeries that most cannot tell they are illegal.
There is plenty of evidence to say they are bogus. Why do you persists in thinking they are legit when clearly they are not? Where is your proof?
