Just got a notification from eReaderIQ that Banking on Death, the first in the John Thatcher series by Emma Lathen, is now out on Kindle. I also see that When In Greece, the ninth in this series, is available too. I don't recognize the publisher - Simply Media? Although the price of $5.99 is a bit much for very old backlist titles, I do hope very much that this will be the start of getting this whole series in e-book!
Just discovered that the majority of Emma Lathen's John Putnam Thatcher series is now available as ebooks on Amazon and Kobo (checked US, UK & Canada). Amazon are also offering them as part of Kindle Unlimited.

How odd. I could have sworn I had the first two in ebook, but apparently not. Well, you know they say that the memory is the second thing to go....
Ok, I'm not completely senile. I knew I saw them somewhere. The Chaos Gate is coming out as an ebook in May from Baen Books.

Titles 1 - 15 in the Mamur Zapt series by Michael Pearce are now available in the US from Poisoned Pen Press at both Kindle and Kobo, and are VIP/couponable at Kobo. It is good they are couponable, because they are a little pricey for backlist, however this is one of my top five or so favorite series, so I'll be picking them up slowly whenever Kobo coupons or sales make them a little less. (Sigh for the days of unlimited-use Kobo coupons...)

As of now, I think the only Pearce/Mamur Zapt title not available in ebook is The Mark of the Pasha. Hopefully Poisoned Pen is just working their way through the series, and will get to this one too. (The last three in the series have been available in ebook from the time of first publication, by a different publisher, Severn House.)

Also, a bunch more titles in the Stone Angel series by Marvin Albert are available now from Wildside Press - only the last two are now still to come.

Oh, and another in the Johnny Ortiz series by Richard Martin Stern, so now there are two out - hopefully more to come...

And finally, all of the Mom titles (except the short story collection) from James Yaffe, but from one of the BPH, so outrageously priced for old backlist, and I won't be buying unless they go on sale.

Thanks for the heads up @Sufue.

The Michael Pearce books are also available from Amazon & Kobo's Canadian stores, but not from the UK.

Just as a note, the book came out on schedule and I purchased a copy. Who knows, maybe if this does well, the first two will be converted.

One I would like to show up as ebook would be Lost Moon, about Apollo 13 by Jeffrey Kluger.

I have the hardcover, but would buy an ebook in a heartbeat to replace it! The author has a new book on Apollo 8 out, have a hold on the ebook at my library and looking forward to it!

I would love to have From the Terrace by John O'Hara as ebook. I just suffered reading over 900 pages paperback and realised yet again why I cannot go back to paper books.

John O'Hara seems to be coming to Kindle, a little at a time.

Yes, but that started around 3 or even more years back, so it's a bit slow.

Okay. Let me rephrase: John O'Hara seems to be coming to Kindle, at a glacial pace

there's no ebook version of michio kaku's "Hyperspace: A Scientific Odyssey Through Parallel Universes, Time Warps, and the Tenth Dimension". there are other books by this physicist that are ebooks, but not this one.
