The companies said that among the e-books offered will be works by Geoffrey Moore, who has written books on high-tech selling, investing and strategy such as "Crossing the Chasm," "Inside the Tornado" and "The Gorilla Game". Other titles will include Mario Puzo's "The Family," Clive Barker's "Coldheart Canyon" and Nobel Prize winner Gao Xingjian's "Soul Mountain".
