I'm having a hard time finding books/ebooks (preferably fiction) in Vietnamese. It would be great if they were in English and Vietnamese, but just Vietnamese is ok, too.

Does anyone have any sites that sell books in Vietnamese, and ship to the USA?

Thanks

saharavn.com and nhasachtructuyen appear to sell books in Vietnamese.

I haven't checked if any of the above ship to the US; I don't read Vietnamese, and I don't live in North America, both of which complicate such checking. I don't endorse the above sites; I know nothing about them. Anyhow - enough disclaimers.

How to find the above, and more: do searches with terms like
tiếng Việt ebook
tiếng Việt "Sách trực tuyến"

(I gathered the terms for Vietnamese and ebook from Wikipedia; I don't know if others would work better).

Beyond that, there appears to be a vibrant pirate scene. I've been unable to find any free and legal Vietnamese ebooks, other than one by the Raelian Movement, although I suppose other religious groups also have some.

Thanks, I had been doing searching in English and finding pretty much just the pirated stuff, which I prefer to avoid. Unfortunately, I'm pretty new to Vietnamese, and I can't tell if these places ship overseas or not - I'll keep poking around and seeing I can figure it out.

I'm willing to pay for books, so long as I know they're legit (like Harry Potter or original Vietnamese fiction/non-fiction).
