You can get all sorts of apps for reading books on non-Kndle devices. Eg you can get a kindle app on your ipad, or use Apple's own e-reader, iBooks.

I've just had a look and there doesn't seem to be an e version unfortunately.

In the future if books do have an eversion you can buy them and download the kindle app to pc/ipad and read it on there.
