Anybody have any recommendations for public or private trackers for ebooks? Looking mainly for epub files.

I personally found IRC to be the best solution for ebooks. Not sure how much detail/links are allowed here but theres plenty of guides. Look for “IRCHighway ebooks” on your preferred search engine

This is usually my first place, for fiction books. Hardly ever walk away empty-handed.

same. sometimes for really new books in niche genres, i'll come up empty handed but more often than not i find what i'm looking for

Interesting I'll have to look into that. I noticed that I could barely find anything from my normal sites as they are primarily for video.

Just want to add for anyone who might attempt this, my IRC client of choice is Pidgin. Open source and works on windows as well as Linux (not sure about iOS). Most tutorials suggest the good old mIRC, but using it after the trial period increasingly becomes a pain with its wait screen with timer.
