Can i get it in pdf form, or at least, can i get a copy of the epub, instead of being helf hostage to a proprietary reading walled garden like Amazon. Does Nook allow you to download the epub file? But, I’d prefer pdf.

The Kobo version is a DRM free epub, so you can read it wherever you like. I'm still figuring out how/where to sell a PDF, because I really, really, _really_ do not like epub for technical books. It's ok for novels, at best. Tips welcome.

https://berksoft.ca/gol/genius-of-lisp-chapter-8.pdf has a free chapter.

Polar.sh's pretty easy to set up! It was originally built with selling download links in mind (for stuff like OSS software).

Not affiliated, just a happy customer.

I'm gonna check it out, thanks.

Turns out that for me, Shopify was even easier, so that's sorted now. In any case, thanks for pushing me into the right direction.

Yup, you can now. berksoft.ca/gol has a link to a (DRM free) PDF version.
