DRAT! Kobo had nothing but an anthology that didn't include "Davy", and Amazon had a couple of Paper books, used. Last edited by GlenBarrington; 02-05-2018 at 10:23 PM. |

As near as I can tell though, most of Eddings' books still aren't available as ebooks in North America, although they now have audiobooks of them. (Well, I know they were available briefly but no longer.) |

The only Shel Silverstein e-book I have found, and bought, is The Giving Tree.
I would like to see e-book releases of his other works, like Where the Sidewalk Ends, Falling Up, A Light in the Attic, etc. I'm not a big fan of poetry, but I make an exception for Edgar Allan Poe and Shel Silverstein. "Sarah Cynthia Sylvia Stout Would Not Take the Garbage Out" Now that's poetry. |

Definitely geo-restrictions. I checked the Amazon US site with the same results as you. However, the Australian site has the ebook for sale for $A6.99.

It's slightly odd, because although the US and UK editions are clearly different (they have completely different covers), it's published by Transworld in the UK and Del Rey in the US, both of which are owned by the Randy Penguin. Perhaps, though, Eddings granted digital publishing rights in the UK but not in the US for some reason.

Just go to Kobo and go shopping in a different country. Problem solved.

I've no idea. All I do know is that a number of people have said, in previous threads of this nature, that they don't wish to falsify information when they buy books. It doesn't bother me personally, but it clearly is an issue for some people.
