The six books are available as EPUB and AZW3 files. The AZW3 is good for all but the oldest of Amazon Kindle. If they don’t work for your Kindle, use a converter to create MOBIs from the EPUB.
The original EPUB books were created by Ven. Yuttadhammo. These files were reformatted to improve the reading experience. You can find links to the original HTML files as well as PDF Scans here.
