Surprisingly, I actually did not own an ebook version of this. I assumed I did, along with the paperback, the hardcover, the More than Complete compendium, the . . .

Of course I'd buy one with illustrations.

If this is read on a Kindle e-reader, everything will be in black and white?

The illustration appears to be 1 page per chapter. I thought this was a fully illustrated version. Oh well.

Same with me. Had to check my kindle. Been dragging the big book to kids karate classes. Wish it was the whole collection though since I'm halfway through Hitchhikers guide. Don't care about the pictures.

Oh, $9.99 for whole set. Nice. Have lots of slow ship credits from Christmas shopping.

I have had this for a while. There are no illustrations whatsoever in the Kindle version. Title is misleading.

I'm not paying $3 for an ebook, I'll get a free copy somewhere else.

Alternatives abound. library, used bookstore, borrow, torrent, etc. A lot of companies seem to think they are the only game in town when there is a lot of competition. I've been switching com companies and products a lot lately for that and saving money.

In this case, I already own multiple copies of it. Only if it was cheaper would I buy a copy for my kindle.
