Old Forester, Inc
Is this a legit company? It appears to be an iBook only ebook publisher that publishes mostly famous books. According to bookchart.info, they have such ebooks as
A Separate Peace by John Knowles Burr by Gore Vidal Go Ask Alice by Beatrice Sparks Lord of Light by Roger Zelazny Lost Horizon by James Hilton The Chosen by Bhaim Potok. and others. 41 in all. |

Seems fishy. Last I checked Lord of Light was still not available as an official eBook, although the estate has been slowly putting out some of his other books. Those are put out by Amber Ltd.

I think Open Road Media has the US rights to James Hilton, but he's in the public domain in Canada and other life+50 countries.

That was my thought. Most of the others I wouldn't have thought twice about, but I can't see Zelazny's heir putting out Lord of Light as a low priced exclusive on Apple.

Just as an update, I sent an email to iBooks support and to the Zelazny estate's literary agent (well, technically Jane Lindskold who forwarded it to the Zelazny estate's literary agent). We will see what comes of it.
