I've only read Secret History, and I have Shadows but haven't read it. I'm not much of an e-reader fan. And I don't like buying novellas at a price more than a paperback (Emperor's Soul). I feel that being a big fan, and buying many of the shorts as ebooks or in anthologies, you've opened yourself up to having to overpay at some point when the author decides to allow the more casual fans to catch up. For me, it was Side Jobs for Butcher's Dresden Files. I've since not bought his new shorts, waiting for another collection (Brief Cases?). So I guess the big way to look at it is, it's not a cash grab to get the diehards to pay more, it's to allow casuals to catch up and see more of the stories they otherwise have missed.
