I happened to notice a thread at MobileRead yesterday that points out the fact that Open Road Media is giving away several thousand Kindle ebooks for free.
The promotion includes backlist titles, over 5000 of them, and they are free through December 20th.
Here’s the link to the list of free Kindle books from Open Road Media at Amazon.
You can use the navigation bar on the left to sort by genres.
Note that some of the Open Road Media titles aren’t free; the list is sorted by price from low to high.
There are a wide range of titles on the list, covering virtually every genre, and there’s even a number of non-fiction books.
The only downside with free ebooks is that you cannot gift them; it would be nice to be able to send some of the freebies to others but Amazon always removes the gifting option from free titles.
Fair warning: After skimming through hundreds of titles, $0.00 and $0.99 begin to look alike. 🙂
Yep. $0.00 and $0.99 – I ended up buying two at the latter price. Oops.
Mostly classic! These can be acquired for free from pretty much anywhere.
The vast majority of them aren’t free classics actually; they are backlists. There are tons of good science fiction and fantasy ebooks especially.
Yes, thank you for the news. I have downloaded many books and they are all free. It is unbelievable!
The free eBooks are the best addition by the Open Road Media.Every user can enjoy reading the books since they cover both non fiction and fiction genres.
I also was charged .99 cents.
