Can you grep through ebooks? (feddit.nl)

I was trying to do that but I noticed ls | grep searchterm just searches the book TITLES for searchterm. Is this possible, to search the text of ebooks?

Sounds like a good time to mention that "Little Brother" by Cory Doctorow is available in GNU Info format (usually used for manpages).
