In order to convert your Kindle books with Codex, you will need to install Kindle For PC version 1.17, which you can get here:
Please note, that you can only convert books you have purchased and only for your use-you cannot share them with others without violating the copyright laws and cheating the author out of their tiny royalties. In the second half of 2015, I finally rewrote that prototype to include the functionality I wanted it to have from the start, and the software is now publicly available to download. I named it Codex, a word used from the 16th century onwards to denote, now ancient, manuscripts in book form. Subsequently, in 2014, I started to develop a small prototype application to make the process easier and more intuitive, not only for people wanting to read Kindle eBooks, but also for me when people needed help. The guide proved popular, but it required heavy use of the command line, making it unsuitable and daunting for quite a lot of people, not to mention that it was an absolute nightmare to troubleshoot if anything went wrong. A few years ago, I wrote a tutorial which guided people through the installation and configuration of software for the purposes of gaining access to books purchased from the Amazon Kindle Store. Here is a little section from his old web site. Never fear, I had kept the last version of the Codex installation file so please read on. Thanks to Alan Lemley for discovering that James Scholes web site seems to be no more.
