Wool in ePub?
I have read some interesting reviews of "Wool" by Hugh Howey. I can't seem to find an ePub version in the usual places - only Amazon editions. Anyone know where I can find this?

Wool can be purchased from B&N http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/wool...=9781469984209
But in order to read it on your T1, you will need to strip the DRM. |

You may need to update your Calibre. If your Calibre is too old and the file you have is a KF8 file, then the old Calibre won't know anything about it. As was said earlier, there is no DRM. So that is not an issue.

Don't know if it's the same problem, but I was having a problem with the internal viewer and it turned out the azw3 is not turned on by default. I need to be turned on under "Preferences" "Behavior".

I took Wool Omnibus in ePub and fixed it up so it looks good. It wasn't hard to do and did not take long. I do agree that before then, it wasn't formatted well.
