![BOOK ONE: The First Navigator of Europe
Cook was a captain of the Admiralty
When sea-captains were more like warlocks
...[and] drove their ships
By their own blood, no laws of schoolbook steam,
Till yards were sprung, and masts went overboard-
Daemons in periwigs, doling magic out,
Who read fair alphabets in stars
Where humbler men found but a mess of sparks -
KENNETH SLESSOR, "FIVE VISIONS OF CAPTAIN COOK"

Q: QuestionDoes this device come with the 3 months free kindle unlimited subscription?(2 answers)
A: AnswerConfusing - I received 4 different answers, so I called Amazon. Amazon states that if you buy the Kindle from them, you get 3 free months of Kindle Unlimited. I then called Best Buy & With Best Buy you can get 2 trial months at $4.99 for each month, then you can upgrade to $11.99 per month for books by subscribing.to Kindle Unlimited. There is no free Kindle Unlimited from Bestbuy but it might be worth having the fantastic Geek Sauad in case you have an issue with your Kindle at some point.Answered by RickyB

Happy gifter
I bought this as a gift for my fiancee. She said for her first time with an e-reader she’s obsessed. She loves that it is light weight and fits in almost every purse she owns even small hand bags. She loves that the light doesn’t hurt her eyes when reading and hasn't had any issues using it. The only thing she cam across was that she had to google how to leave the book and go back to library which was a simple tap to the top of the screen. She said she rates it 5 stars and is obsessed with it. The battery life last like a whole week. Im thinking about getting myself one! I didn't know it came with 3 months on kindle unlimited which was a big added perk. Overall it great gif and gave me big brownie points with my fiancee so its a win in my book!

Amazing product, totally worth the money.
The product it good, light weight and screen is just amazing. I was not sure if I should buy the product or not but now that I have used it I think it is totally worth it. The next version of the product have a night shift(warmth) which I feel is missing in this version. Otherwise, I think the product is just Amazinggggg, specially the screen. The X-ray feature for characters in the book is one of the most useful one.
