Awesome, although it would have been nice if the exercised a little more pricing creativity. I wouldn't mind grabbing all 35 if I could do it at a discounted bundle price.

We actually have LOTS of eBooks not available in the US. It's all a matter of who the UK and US publishers are, and which ones do or don't publish eBooks.

I wonder which Chapter 1 Rosetta Books has chosen to include in Childhood's End, the original or the alternate chapter 1 that was written after the end of the Cold War?

I would love to have an ebook edition of "A fall of Moondust," and "Earthlight," but $8.99 each is way too spendy for me.

You can use coupons at Kobo for these - I just used Bargainmoose40 to get 40% off Childhood's End making it $5.39. Bargainmoose40 is supposed to be able to be used unlimited times.

I read the sample on line at Barnes & Noble. The book uses the original first chapter and includes the 1989 modification as an appendix ... Good all the way around! Personally, I much prefer the original.
