"No Orchids for Miss Blandish"

As a follow-up to my last post on the lack of books in the iBookstore, I would like to suggest a couple of places where ePub format books for iBooks can be downloaded:
  • Manybooks.net has a collection of excellent books that are out of copyright; e.g. "No Orchids for Miss Blandish" by James Hadley Chase.
  • Project Gutenberg also serves ePub versions for their entire collection; e.g. "Mysterious Affair at Styles" by Agatha Christie is the first appearance of Hercule Poirot.
Remember to also download the cover image (or search for a suitable one in Google Images) and after selecting the book in iTunes, drop the image in the cover-art area in the bottom-left corner of the sidebar.
