The release of Tony Blair’s memoirs yesterday caused a bit of a stir which you would expect when any ex Prime Minister lifts the lid on the secrets of Government.
It also marked a welcome change in eBook pricing. Amazon is selling the Kindle edition for £6.99 which compares quite well to the hardcover which is £12.50. It’s also pleasing to see it released on the same day. I checked the iBooks library, but it was not available at the time of writing.
I have to confess: when I saw the Kindle price yesterday, I bought the book. I NEVER buy books on the day of their release but the combination of (i) price and (ii) ease of getting it onto my Kindle persuaded me. It was something of an impulse buy, which the Kindle is very adept at provoking.
