3.0 out of 5 stars Content is good, but would say it is definitely overpriced

A Kindle book that cannot be downloaded onto a standard Kindle device? Works on Kindle for iPad and Kindle for Mac, but that should be made patently clear. Also more expensive than the standard print book? Content is good, but would say it is definitely overpriced.
