  Did you write the books? If not, you’re probably going to run afoul of the Terms of Service here, which forbid reselling.

  Then it shouldn’t be difficult. The only thing is that most of Amazon’s codes will be stripped out for security reasons. You’ll need to use the plain HTML links from the Link To Any Amazon Page rather than widget codes, etc. Once you have the plain text link, you can put that link code around an image or some text (in other words, you can configure the CONTENTS but not the link itself; that has to stay the same).
