“Enriched” E-books

This is the coolest!

eHarlequin has launched “enriched” e-books. What are enriched e-books, you ask?

From their press release:

” … (these books are) enriched with interactive buttons that hyperlink to Web sites containing photos, historical commentaries, illustrations, sound effects, maps, articles and more, bringing the world of the novel to life without the reader having to leave the computer or the current screen page. The interactive buttons have been designed to be unobtrusive, so if one prefers not to access the bonus material, the reading experience remains uninterrupted.”

Nicola Cornick’s UNMASKED is the launch book.

Thanks again to pal Chuck for sharing that info!
