Currently, Amazon books cover are retrieved simplistically, with a HTML
<img> tags which src attribute is build based on sanitized biblio record
ISBN. It doesn't work always, as you said.

A better approach would be to do as for GoogleBooks covers: after HTML
page loading, sending asynchronously requests to Amazon Web Service
(AWS) in order to get ASIN from ISBN, then book covers, and then
complete HTML DOM with appropriate <img> tags.
