OK, 'humor' aside. Has the Kindle version improved since 2012? (See the first review from "Anonymous Coward" at Amazon U.S.A.)
I would say it's been fixed up. In the copyright, it shows as v7.1019. So it's been through a number of revisions.

When I first read Hyperion, it was an OCR mess. I compared a newer copy to the one I read and it was majorly fixed up.

I've seen a lot of eBooks getting revisions to fix formatting, errors, new cover and/or hi-res cover and sometimes completely redone as the filenames are changed.

Metatropolis by Jay Lake, Tobias S. Buckell, Elizabeth Bear, John Scalzi, and Karl Schroeder is $2.99 on Amazon.com

This is a collection of short stories about the fuure of cities, set in a shared universe.

The Barrow Will Send What it May by Margaret Killjoy is $0.99 on Amazon.com

A novella, sequel to The Lamb Will Slaughter the Lion
In the first novella, the main character visited an anarchist commune who was having trouble with a spirit they summoned. They decide to continue hunting demons. I don't think you need to read the first novella, but I can recommend it.

Songs of the Dying Earth: Short Stories in Honor of Jack Vance edited by George R. R. Martin and Gardner Dozois is $2.99 on Amazon.com

The Magicians by Lev Grossman - $1.99
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B002AU7MJU
This is book 1 of 3

Quote:
The New York Times bestselling novel about a young man practicing magic in the real world, now an original series on SYFY

“The Magicians is to Harry Potter as a shot of Irish whiskey is to a glass of weak tea. . . . Hogwarts was never like this.”
—George R.R. Martin

“Sad, hilarious, beautiful, and essential to anyone who cares about modern fantasy.”
—Joe Hill

“A very knowing and wonderful take on the wizard school genre.”
—John Green

“The Magicians may just be the most subversive, gripping and enchanting fantasy novel I’ve read this century.”
—Cory Doctorow

“This gripping novel draws on the conventions of contemporary and classic fantasy novels in order to upend them . . . an unexpectedly moving coming-of-age story.”
—The New Yorker

“The best urban fantasy in years.”
—A.V. Club
