A free sample book is always good. If anyone is looking for the link to the promo page to keep tabs on what is coming up on a given date here it is: http://www.phoenixpick.com/KPromo.htm

I know this is supposed to be DRM free on Kindle, but I'm having a problem opening it with Calibre. Has anyone else tried or converted it to EPUB?

I had no trouble opening it or converting to ePub with Calibre (the then latest, 0.8.46). I downloaded the ebook with Kindle for PC 1.9.2.

I'll also try a different OS (maybe it's some call Calibre makes that is different from XP to W7). |

OK. Works fine on 2nd computer, so I'll try working on fixing whatever is wrong with Calibre on the original computer later...
