Book promos and giveaways

[Juliana]

Lately I've taken advantage of a couple of free kindle book giveaways I saw on twitter; yesterday Mark Lawrence was tweeting about a free kobo book, too. Authors also often have book giveaways they mention on their twitter/Facebook/blogs/Goodreads...

A lot of these promos are one-day-only deals (the free books especially). And I know a lot of us here would love to take advantage of them! So I thought we could keep this thread for letting each other know when we hear about this sort of thing (especially the free e-book deals!!).

Does this sound like a good idea?

Sounds like a great idea, Juliana. Discovered a load of free books on Amazon (searched on "free kindle books sci-fi").
Just read The Emperors edge (www.amazon.co.uk/The-Emperors-Edge-ebook/dp/B004H1TDB0/ref=tmm_kin_title_popover).
Which was a pretty good read, though plot bit weak in second half but good use of humour kept me reading.

Very good idea, although I didn't find much of interest in the Amazon listing with the exception of a couple of Andre Norton chestnuts. Interested to see what folks come up with.

Ben Galley's 'The Written' is currently free on Amazon! He's one of the most renowned self published authors of fantasy in the UK.

Thanks for the tip, D-E-M. Not free on Amazon US, unfortunately, but hope its useful for someone on your side of the Atlantic!
