Hmm, when you say 'authors', I presume you mean Bert's memoirs of a trainspotter or Doris's latest heaving-breast romance...?
Or Sateebs Italian roadtrip with Giovanni.

Do some research before commenting on something that you know nothing about.

Re: E-books and e-book readers
You could help by informing us what kind of authors, what kind of books, how many you've read (or published). I'm not being difficult here, but my experience of self-published authors doesn't give me any great expoectations.handdrummer wrote: ↑Mon Nov 07, 2022 1:38 amAlas, a poor assumption on your part.dtaai-maai wrote: ↑Sun Nov 06, 2022 4:56 pmHmm, when you say 'authors', I presume you mean Bert's memoirs of a trainspotter or Doris's latest heaving-breast romance...?handdrummer wrote: ↑Sat Nov 05, 2022 9:20 pm There is a site called Substack, where authors are publishing their work and for a small fee...

This is the way
Re: E-books and e-book readers
I've downloaded 3 books from z-library today using the z-library bot. Bit of a hassle the first time around but after that it's a doddle.
Step 1: Download the Telegram app and set up account if you don't have it already.
Step 2: Go to https://singlelogin.me/ and log in to your z-library account.
Step 3: You'll see the below image. Click on link to the bot.
Step 4: Start the bot (will now move to Telegram app).
Step 5: Tell the Z-library bot what book you want and voila! Your download is ready.
After you've done it once, you'll only need to go into the Telegram app and do step 5. Though I have had to convert the files to mobi after as I haven't been getting any option for mobi file so far.

Re: E-books and e-book readers
Don't need to convert to mobi, I just found out. Was unaware kindle had changed to epub.

Re: E-books and e-book readers
Just checked out the other option for downloading from z-library which works fine, too.

Re: E-books and e-book readers
If you can't be bothered looking for yourself that's fine. It was just a suggestion and not one you have to take up. I have no idea of the meaning of "what kind of authors," or "what kind of books," and I don't see the relevance of how many I've read. if it's not important to you, don't bother.dtaai-maai wrote: ↑Mon Nov 07, 2022 3:20 amYou could help by informing us what kind of authors, what kind of books, how many you've read (or published).

Lost,
Is your link through Tor correct?
I get US employment and recipes for onion soup sites when I search.
Thanks.

^^ Link works in TOR browser.
Re: E-books and e-book readers
I use Brave browser, which has Tor built in, and it wont open. As said - I'll use Telegram.

Re: E-books and e-book readers
Update on this one - the site finally opened in Brave using the Tor extension (it is not instant).
The instructions above work well, you have to enable the bot in your profile and then add it to Telegram. I'll give you a code to initiate the bot which is then linked to your ZL account.
You can search on ZL, then copy the exact name of the book into its Telegram channel and it will find it, then you can download using Telegram. Tried a couple and it works (for now).

Re: E-books and e-book readers
I must be missing a step.
I've got a book loaded using Telegram but whilst I can see it on my desktop I can't understand how to get it to Kindle. I thought it would appear on my download file but it doesn't.
