Post your free* book finds here.  Click here for the February 2010 free book thread: http://www.kindleboards.com/index.php/topic,19269.0.html

This thread is for members to post your Free book finds, no self-promotion please.

If you have a book of your own to promote, you may start a thread all your own in the Book Bazaar and bump it occasionally (no more than once a week, please) to promote your book, to post news and to talk to your fans!  Of course, you may also list the book in your Avatar and signature.  Thanks!

Tip: typing in the title in addition to including the cover helps when doing searches!

We generally try to keep this thread on topic with book posts only, off-topic posts will be "pruned"!  This helps members who use the "new post" indicator.  Thanks for your cooperation!

On the plus side, there are currently 9 other new books of various genres showing up on the Amazon free books list at:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/search?node=154606011&keywords=-domain&field-price=0-0&sort=price&redirect=true

On the minus side, they're not actually free yet....but I bet they will be soon, so keep an eye out...

Steph H - those books are taking forever to drop in price today!  Nice to have so many new ones and in different genres, though!

There were several posts in the bargain thread about Ruth Ann Nordin's books.  (Many are available as free PDFs on her website or $0.99 on Amazon.)  For anyone who was having trouble with the PDF versions -- two of her novellas are also free at Smashwords with a Kindle format.  

Here are the Smashwords links:

A Bride for Tom by Ruth Ann Nordin
The Vanishing by Ruth Ann Nordin

Christianaudio.com has 2 free books for the month of March at http://christianaudio.com/free

You have to use the coupon code MAR2010 and MAR2010B and purchase them in two different orders.  I merge the mp3 files together and put them in my kindle so it sees them as a single book.
   
The Cost of Discipleship (Unabridged) by Dietrich Bonhoeffer
Viewed against the background of Nazi Germany, Bonhoeffer's book is striking enough. At the same time, it shares with many great Christian classics a quality of timelessness, so that it has spoken, and continues to speak powerfully, to the varied concerns of the contemporary world.

   
Fifty Reasons Why Jesus Came to Die (Unabridged) by John Piper
The most important questions anyone can ask are: Why was Jesus Christ crucified? Why did he suffer so much? What has this to do with me? Finally, who sent him to his death? The answer to the last question is that God did. Jesus was God's Son. The suffering was unsurpassed, but the whole message of the Bible leads to this answer.

Note that I just noticed when looking at another page, that several of the books listed above from March 1 are already no longer free, so as always, be careful before clicking "buy"!

sjc, this is probably because Ebook Week is now over and the coupon is no longer valid.

http://christianaudio.com/product_info.php?products_id=2360  Use coupon code PROG103

The Pilgrim’s Progress by John Bunyan, read by Paul Michael, abridged & retold by James Baldwin - One of the most powerful dramas of Christian faith ever written, this captivating allegory of man’s religious journey in search of salvation follows the pilgrim as he travels an obstacle-filled road to the Celestial City. Along the way, he is confronted by monsters and spiritual terrors, among them Worldly Wiseman, Giant Despair, and the demons of the Valley of the Shadow of Death. An enormously influential seventeenth-century classic, universally known for its simplicity, vigor, and beauty of language. Requires coupon code PROG103

Note: I bought this but for a just over 3 hour book, it was split into 37 different files.  I did not download it because I did not want to spend 30 minutes downloading, making sure I have all the files and then merging them into a single file.  I have been told by christianaudio that they are going to change their download system.  So I “purchased” the book and am waiting on them to set up the new system.  Christianaudio allows for up to 12 downloads in a 12 month period.  So I purchased, but I am waiting to download.
