Looks like it; I checked one and it's listed as sold by Amazon Digital Publishing, with no publisher listed.

APub books, like FORGOTTEN BONES, look like this, with the Imprint clearly identified:

Mind you, Tigner's book page is very well laid out.
He put plenty of promotion effort into it to make it look like tradpub. And it looks to have paid off.
There's a lot of line blurring going on these days.
Edit: BAEN for the win yet again: Lending enabled.
