Hey all

So it looks like I'll be getting a windows 8 computer at the start of next year and i was wondering if GW ebooks were somehow compatible with Windows 8

Is there an app that you can download or buy them built into windows 8 or do i have to buy/download some software, etc.?

Thanks because I'd much rather do this than have to buy a tablet/iPad also...not that i'd do that i'd just get the hardcopy...

thanks,

Any app/program that reads epub/mobi will let you read them just fine.

Firefox has a plug-in for ebooks.
Just a thought.

Nope, just Black Library.
Which makes them easier to use cross-platform. There'#'s no tie-in to an app or store, so use it anywhere you can open the file type you downloaded.

Cool thanks.

I just checked the BL eBook store and there is only a handful of 40k codices and a how to paint the wraithknight book....kinda dissapointing.
