You're doing it wrong, then. Try Google Play, for a start.


Does that have a standalone Linux version?
It seems to e a store selling online services and apps for android.. I
dont want a store selling online services Or apps for Android. I want to
download and tread by Ebooks off line. On linux..


And O'Reilly.

I dont want to read O'reilly books thank you.

My challenge to you would be to find a way to download store and read
say Dorothy L sayers 'strong poison' legally and read it off line on a
linux laptop.

Ok, so how do I download it and read it off line on a linux box then?

All I managed to do was read it online.
