I did too ($.25 plus $1.88 credit), but ended up getting it at Amazon too since I wanted the Audio and that's the cheapest way to get it ($1.99 for eBook + $3.99 for audio).

I almost ordered Ancillary Justice from Kobo last night, but held off in the hope it would finally drop on Amazon. Probably I'll never even want the audio, but it's nice to know I'll have the option until/unless the Whispersync discount goes away.

Parasite has dropped at Amazon as well.

I'm seeing it for $5.12.

I'm in.

Edit: Now I'm torn. Nook doesn't do returns like Amazon, and I'd really rather have Ancillary Justice on Amazon, as the Kindle app has become my catalog. Paying $1.99 again makes it effectively $3.98 for Ancillary Justice, which seems like it's still a good deal.

ummmm.... no.

could not find it in the store anywhere, either (and never got an email from them about either the program or the app).

I'll try again direct from my tablet on that page, see if it lets me install that way (the page told me to install via my device, but my device can't find that app in the play store...).

Sorry, but I can't remember if this has yet been mentioned, but the "Northworld Trilogy," by David Drake is FREE. That's 791 pages of reading.

Here's the link to Amazon [u.s.]:

--- Thanks. I wasn't aware of that.

(I don't normally read the titles from Baen.)

Thanks for sharing it, Dr Drib. I don't always check the Baen free library and I do enjoy Drake's work.

Yeah, dropped a little right after my post. Even more reason to get such an excellent book.

He asked about reading apps for his device. This has nothing to do with Windows or Mac software and I never said it did. However if you want desktop software that reads B&N DRM ADE 2.0 does (not sure about 3.0). You're the only one who seems to be discussing eInk devices and Sony's desktop software.

There are a lot of eInk devices that handle Adept DRM but not the B&N flavor. Also, a lot of these devices won't be updated to handle Adobe's new DRM.
