The fine print

• For parsing permalinks please use the async method, since permalinks are basically HTTP 301 redirects.
• You may also pass raw ASIN/ISBN numbers as arguments.
• No exception is thrown on an invalid argument. The resulting object would simply contain undefineds.
• Heavily influenced by amazon-helpers.
