rjl Posted April 17, 2017 Report Share Posted April 17, 2017 I'm wondering if anyone here could point me to somewhere that I can buy TOR ebooks from the UK? (Reason being, I'd like to re-read some of Brandon's works on the go, and my hardcovers are both heavy and starting to wear out and I don't really want to buy Gollancz (the UK publisher's) ebooks. For an example of why i don't want to buy Gollancz, their ebook of way of kings comes in two parts with a price tag of £10 each, add the two together and that's twice as expensive as the Tor version on amazon.com but unless I'm quite mistaken I can't buy kindle books from amazon.com and use them on a UK device (correct me if I'm wrong here) - I tried dragonmount.com but they apparently can't sell their TOR ebooks outside of the US.

Samaldin Posted April 17, 2017 Report Share Posted April 17, 2017 (edited) I have Brandons ebooks on my phone (i´m using the amazon kindle app) and it works just fine for me (from Germany) to buy them through amazon.de, so are you sure it doesn´t work?

I could buy from Amazon.co.uk easily but they have the Gollancz versions not the Tor versions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenod Posted April 17, 2017 Report Share Posted April 17, 2017 Not entirely sure about the UK, but in the Netherlands I use kobo (I like being able to download as epub), and my copy from AU seems to be the Tor version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeiryWriter Posted April 17, 2017 Report Share Posted April 17, 2017 Gollancz has the ebook distribution rights for Brandon's books in the UK, so I'm not sure there is a legal way of getting the Tor version there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well if that's the case it's very disappointing. I guess I'll stick with my hardcovers, I may have to buy TWOK again if I read it much more though... Ah well. If I could get TOR ebooks in the UK I'd happily double dip for most of Brandon's books, but Gollancz's overpriced books with bad cover art are just not something I want to support.
