Is it DRM-free? I don't see anything about the format in the listing at bookshop.org, other than the uninformative label "ebook."

@glc https://bookshop.org/info/ebooks#EBOOKFAQ the FAQ doesn't really clear it up either. Some ebooks are DRM-free, if the publisher offers it. No information about how to identify which books are distributed that way â˜šī¸

@TheWarOnCars

@cargot_robbie @glc @TheWarOnCars I looked around at other titles, and ones which are DRM-free have a prominent DRM-Free badge on their page.

See for example: https://bookshop.org/p/books/wolf-worm-t-kingfisher/02d097c3b2df2d65?ean=9781250829832&next=t

So it looks like this one is not DRM-Free. Which means I'm not going to buy it. Bummer, as otherwise it would be an easy impulse purchase.

@unlambda

I've heard something about the book previously and from what I've heard it's very well worth reading.

And also worth recommending to a library, the sort of book one would like to see get some reach.

But I'll skip this "buy but not own" option as well.
