The Jack McKinney Robotech books were available as ebooks. I guess the rights expired, so now they are gone. But all of the books were released as ebooks except for... The Masters Gambit I think was left out. The original twelve were collected as 3 book omnibuses. I have all of them.
I would like to see the Yoshiyuki Tomino Mobile Suit Gundam trilogy receive an official ebook release. Last edited by ZodWallop; 08-30-2021 at 04:31 PM. |

You can easily buy those books with a good vpn, I used to buy lots of books from amazon with only changing my region settings, so not even vpn is needed there, but dunno about kobo rakuten settings. |

Incidentally, with Kobo you don't even need a VPN. It's (almost) as easy as changing your country in the settings. |

Joel Rosenberg's Guardians of the Flame series. The first 6 are available as ebooks but not the last 4. A bummer to me, because I've got the first ones in dead tree format but not the ending.

Sadly, this did not prove true for me. I tried changing my country in the settings to one I wished to buy from, it then asked for a payment method associated with that country - Paypal not an option, my CCs not valid from Kobo's POV for the country I chose.

Visa and Mastercard are very difficult to use for foreign purchases. My American Express on the other, hand, has never been a problem.
