The bootleg is almost 400 megabytes. I suspect the $9.99 is because of data tranfer surcharge and the legit price is based on market considerations.
One acquaintance of mine who resides in the US says the bootleg copy of the book seems to be a collection of page images scanned from a pbook edition.

Since I am connecting from Canada, I don't get to click through to the preview. I just get to see the Continue shopping on the Kindle store at Amazon.ca. If I click on that link, I don't get to see the pirated version, just the PRH UK Vintage Digital version from 2012.
