No. Just clever website design by Amazon (against the consumer). To be fair, I was distracted at work. But there's a big orange button for 'buy the whole shebang' and a little plain text link for 'look first', exacerbated by 1-Click.

Yes it is.

You know, I moved to buying most of my books from Kobo. I bought this book at Amazon because it is an indie that is part of KU.

I have my gripes with how Kobo's website is designed (why is the 'purchase confirmation' page so useless?) but man, I sure prefer buying there to buying from Amazon.
