Traveling Light ($8.54 Kindle), by Max Lucado, is free from Kobobooks, courtesy of Christian publisher Thomas Nelson.

Book Description
Weary travelers. You’ve seen them—everything they own crammed into their luggage. Staggering through terminals and hotel lobbies with overstuffed suitcases, trunks, duffels and backpacks.

Backs ache. Feet burn. Eyelids droop.

We’ve all seen people like that.

At times, we are people like that—if not with our physical luggage, then at least with our spiritual load.

We all lug loads we were never intended to carry. Fear. Worry. Discontent.

No wonder we get so weary. We’re worn out from carrying that excess baggage. Wouldn’t it be nice to lose some of those bags?

That’s the invitation of Max Lucado. With the twenty-third Psalm as our guide, let’s release some of the burdens we were never intended to bear.

Click on offer, then click on the link to get an email with the offer, which expires on May 4.

You'll get an email with a link to the special $10 for a $20 Amazon.com Gift Card page. Don't one-click, but use the Add to Cart button. Then click on Proceed to Checkout, sign in and then enter the promotion code you received via email (mine was practically instantaneous) where it says Gift Cards & Promotional Codes and click on Apply. Double check your Order total and place the order. You'll get a gift card via next day delivery (I'd prefer it in email and you have to think it would have been cheaper for Amazon and/or the sponsoring advertiser, but who am I to turn down what is essentially a half-price offer on any order up to $20?). I'll let you know when I get it tomorrow if it looks like it will work on Agency titles in the Kindle store (most gift cards do and the offer B&N had like this worked on nookbooks).

Free Game - Luxor

Today's free game download from Amazon, Luxor by MumboJumbo, is one that I didn't have already. It doesn't have any reviews yet, either, but I went ahead and "purchased" it, anyway.

Game Description
As addictive as it is exciting, Luxor is an action-puzzle game that takes you on a thrilling adventure across the lands of Ancient Egypt. The mysterious goddess, Isis, has enlisted you to battle Set and his evil minions. With 88 mind-blowing levels, the challenge will not be an easy one. You must use your mystical winged scarab to shoot magical spheres and destroy the approaching colored spheres by making matches of three or more. Stop them all before they can reach the pyramids at the ends of the paths… or all of Egypt is doomed!

To aid in your quest, unleash the awesome powers of Isis by catching the various falling power-up talismans, such as explosive Fireballs, thundering Lightning Bolts or magical Multi-Color Spheres that make matches of any spheres. Eliminate an entire chain of spheres to destroy the scarab minion pushing them and collect the sparkling bonus gem hidden within. You can even earn an extra life by collecting 30 golden Ankh coins.

As you battle Set and his minions, enjoy the awesome original music score and thrill to the electrifying sound effects. Filled with excitement, adventure, and tons of explosive action, there is only one question you must ask yourself: Can you thwart Set's diabolical plans and save Egypt?

• Journey Across Ancient Egypt
• Shoot Magical Colored Spheres
• 88 Gorgeous Levels
• Can You Thwart The Schemes Of A God?
