Great Book - Terrible Format on Kindle
21 May 2012
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
I've always been a fan of the James Halliday book when it comes to wine selection and given the price of this Kindle edition compared the paperback, the decision seemed logical to purchase this.....
......however, the format of this Kindle version is, in a word - terrible. There is no indexing, a number of odd page bugs (flicked forward and back a page presents a corrupt image) and absolutely no formatting or optimisation for the digtal format.
It is almost impossible to simply flick to a selected winery, variety or any other reason one woud chose to own a reference book like this.
I will now go and purchase the paperback version elsewhere (sorry Amazon) and chalk this one up to experience.
