- Imajinnbooks has added the two new books for today (My Lord Viking and Winged Victory) and fixed the older PDF listings to be free (they were at $6). be sure to click NEXT at the bottom of the page to find the 2nd book for today. If you are late finding this deal, all six books so far are still free.
- DigBooks Cafe has eight books you can download free this month (scroll down the page a bit, to the March Specials section). You can pick up PDF (convert via Amazon, lit (best choice to convert via Calibre) or html (no cover art).
- R. Scot Johns is giving away drm-free copies of The Saga of Beowulf, Part I: The Land of Death & Shadow, if you either subscribe to his newsletter or friend him on facebook (both forms have a place for comments, where you can let him know what format you want). If you sign up, tell him Books on the Knob sent you (and, hey, I'll get the 2nd book in the series free!).
- Kobobooks.com
has their $1 off coupon going again. It says "selected books"
, but I generally get these to work on any non-Agency titles. The code mar8ww1 is valid today thru March 10; you can get many of the 99 cent short stories or novels by indie authors for free or get a decent discount on books that are under $5; ebookweek2011 gives you 15% and is a better coupon for some more expensive titles. I picked up a couple by Amanda Hocking for free and you can get Sara Gruen's Water for Elephants
for $5.29, Richard Castle's Heat Wave
for $3.99, Sarah Bower's Sins of the House of Borgia
for $1.39 or Elizabeth Chadwick's To Defy a King
for $1.39 or several titles in the Guardians Of Ga'Hoole
series for $3.69, using the $1 off coupon (or get them all; it's an unlimited use coupon).
- [e-reads] has two free books you can download in PDF form: To Tame a Duke by Patricia Grasso and Fool’s Gold (Reid Bennett) by Ted Wood.
- Vanilla Heart Publishing still has a free giveaway of their Valentine's Day anthology.
- While you are digging thru Smashwords, be sure to look for backlist books that a number of authors are now re-publishing on their own (these are traditionally published books, in paper, that are now in e-format and self-published). Authors doing this include Patricia Ryan, Doranna Durgin and Kevin J Anderson (yes, the very one that co-authored a number of DUNE volumes) and I noticed several with discounts for this week.
