I understand that that's possible. Some have said that they've done so. I googled it a little but am still not sure how to go about it. I still would prefer to simply use my Amazon account normally but if they don't show within a year I might more seriously look into it.

I already have everything Eddings wrote (AFAIK, except for the Dreamer's series, which I read in paper, and REALLY disliked. It was like reading the same book four times!). I had to split the purchases between Feedbooks, Kobo (Netherlands), Ebooks.com and Diesel, though, because no-one had everything.

If you shop somewhere else (i.e., not at Amazon US), you can get them all already.

Feedbooks - Belgariad 1-5
Feedbooks - Malloreon 1-5
EBooks.com - The Redemption of Athalus
Ebooks.com - Regina's song

I think you'll be able to find Belgarath, Polgara, The Rivan Codex, The Elenium, The Tamuli, and the Dreamer's series at Kobo (possibly by country-hopping) if you want. I did.

FYI: Feedbooks often sells me books that Diesel or Amazon don't want to sell me.

Since shows a kindle version and you can even look inside even though it is not yet available do you think that it is finally in process to be released? I've been waiting a long time.

That's the listing for the UK title: £4.31 from .co.uk, but UK customer buying from .com use the link above.

Hum, when I go to feedbooks, I don't see them available for purchase.

Sorry - I forgot that. I do have the opposite experience, where Amazon won't let me purchase, due to geo restrictions.

I can see them, logged in or not... actually, I never had it happen that I could NOT buy a book at Feedbooks.

Amazon, Feedbooks, and ebooks.com all show the same books for me in the US, except that Amazon shows two more than the others.

Yea, it's probably a US verses non US thing. For whatever reason, whomever has the ebook rights in the US has chosen not to release them. Since both Eddings and his wife are dead, it's unclear who the rights holder is. That is probably part of the issue.

If you want to find out who the rights-holder is, you can go through whatever the legal process in the US is to obtain a copy of his will, and it will be specified in there, along with the rest of his estate.
