NEWS: ARMORED Ebook is Also Available

JeremyT — Wed, 28 Mar 2012 21:53:52 +0000

A lot of people have been asking about the ebook edition of ARMORED, so I thought that question warranted its own post, even though that information is on the site elsewhere. ARMORED is available in ebook format, but it is only available via Baen’s ebook site, www.baenebooks.com. Baen’s ebooks are all DRM-free, provided in multiple formats (and all are available to you via a single purchase), and should work on all ebook reading devices, including iPad, Nook, and Kindle.
