Codex Seraphinianus (Kindle Edition) I figured for 9 bucks I would buy the kindle edition of this as I didn't feel up to spending over a hundred on a real copy.
The book itself is very interesting, reminds me of Fantastic Planet.
But it's a bit frustrating on the Kindle (for PC in this case). You can't zoom in or examine any pics more closely, and it looks like someone just slapped it down on a desktop scanner and scanned it in.
It should have been a higher res copy with better editing. You can see the wrinkles on pages where they didn't get it flat on the scanner. C'mon folks, you buy a copy and tear it apart to make a good high res scan if you are going to do it this way.
So 5 starts for the book itself, and I'd go a 2.5 on the quality of the Kindle edition. I'm averaging that out to a 4 in this case. It would only have taken a few more hours to really make a GREAT copy.
I feel for 9 dollars it's worth it. I still plan on buying a paper copy some day.
