You could improve on jungle-search by including search terms for:
Text-to-Speech: Enabled/Disabled
Format: AZW/Topaz
Optimized For Larger Screens: Yes/No
Price set by publisher: Yes/No
Sales Rank (higher/lower) than X
On (any/specified) Amazon Bestsellers list: Yes/No

The Language selector needs to be more extensive, or allow type in. For example, Italian, Dutch, Portuguese. Though it looks like typing 'italian edition' in Keywords works okay, for example.

It would also be nice to enhance the Publisher search by including a pre-populated list of publishers to choose from. Since a complete list would probably be several hundred items long with frequent additions/changes, it might be good enough to restrict it to names of 'major' publishers, which would select all titles published under that name or any of its imprints, and to allow type in of a specific publisher, and to select self-published titles only.

Yes, it's the same guy who created jungle-search, Christian Hupfeld. The new site is just for Kindle users, whereas jungle-search was really for Amazon purchases in general. I'm sure he'll appreciate your feedback, as he seems to be interested in making the site truly useful for Kindle users.
