Ah I see.
I'm planning to buy the book and read it on my kindle. It is published by HarperCollins and its available from amazon, kobo and nook. I would like to de-DRM it after purchasing. Which version would be the easiest (or most likely to work)? I live in a country where amazon doesn't offer it on kindle anyways so buying through them would not be less troublesome. |

Kobo DRM removal is still easy, I think, if getting it from Amazon isn't an option. If concerned, try with a free (but still DRMed) ebook first.

Does anyone fancy making an epub version of George Gissing's New Grub Street? I have the Gutenberg version (converted to azw3) but it's painful to read: paragraphs have spaces between them and other annoying typographical things.
So I came here to find a nice version, but none exists. Please make one. Thanks. |

I've been looking for A Welsh Witch by Allen Raine, but I can't find this anywhere in e-format. It was published in 1901 and the author died in 1908, so I presume that it's in the public domain.
Does anyone fancy making an epub please? |

I just had a proper look at the thread title and it should also mention that requesting creative commons eBooks is allowed as well.

I can't even find a scan of this. It seems the book only exists in printed form. No luck then, unless someone could get their hands on, and would be willing to scan, a copy.

It's on the Kindle https://www.amazon.co.uk/Welsh-Witch...=UTF8&qid=&sr=, anyone could extract the text from a digital copy (possibly borrowed from a library?)

Oh, indeed. Somehow I never look at Amazon. If someone provided me with the text, I'd be willing to make a nice epub from it.
