Additional Info
One thing you may need to do after downloading an ebook file is to ensure it has the proper extension name. Most of the times the files don't. You simply need to add "epub", or "mobi" or "txt" depending on the file type. I'll see if I can correct that myself too for another version.

I tried searching for War and Peace, by Leo Tolstoy, but for some reason it didn't show up in the listings. Is this a bug or am I stupid?

@PowerGod, probably not but you can try... and even if you did do you know that there's like millions of books inside there? it's not a practical way to look for something :)
