This an awesome challenge, and I appreciate the challenge. But, I'm stuck on the PDF (probably overlooked something).

Hint: Where could they possibly insert embedded information when they can't edit the Amazon page itself? (It's very limited what is possible, and you might be surprised what starts this journey, also how you reach the dead end and then might realise that you forgot to look for something you didn't anticipate  Thanks Dxxxx I think the winners has probably already been found by now though  |

There's still time! Everyone that gets through gets a shot at the drawing, so for anyone that hasn't solved it yet, you still have a chance.  |

I must be really stuck then, as I have not found any PDF that would require getting into...... |

As jason noted, the winners are drawn, after February ends, once all successful folks have submitted their answers. So they haven't been 'chosen,' yet. So I wish everyone else luck, who's trying.
That said, for those who put in the hours and have figured it out, thus far, congratulations for success.
For those who haven't gotten it, yet, keep trying.
I won't drop hints, as I don't want to diminish the chances of others (who've worked hard and found the answers) to win the book. After I'd solved it, don and I had discussed on a PM, and decided that since folks WERE then managing to solve this, it was best to 'keep the playing field level.' If spoilers are to be handed out, I'm sure the authors will do so, for folks' learning purposes, after the contest ends.
Suffice to say MaXe's 'hint' is all the more someone should need, to at LEAST get started.

Woot! found the PDF, finally feel like I have accomplished something...
Now opened the Password
how much further do I need to go? I think I am beginning to bug the guy and don't wanna waste his time.

When you've reached the finish you'll know. If you don't know, yet, you're likely not quite there... |

Ok, so I have spent way too much time on this. Anyone else stuck on the password? Trying to use l337 5|<1LL5 (pdf crackers) but feel like I should be able to guess it. Posting to vent frustration.... |
