Product Description
From the author of the best-selling blog “Free Kindle Books Plus a Few Other Tips” comes this update to your guide to millions of free books online! Rather than limit yourself to the offerings at Amazon, there are literally thousands upon thousands of books, short stories, and more available to you for no charge which you can transfer directly to your Kindle or other eBook reader, download via the Kindle’s WhisperNet service or, for a small fee, email directly to your Kindle.
Everyone enjoys receiving free stuff – the author included. This guide shows you where you can receive several hundred thousand (actually over a million) free books, blogs, short stories, and other content. Theoretically, you will never have to pay another cent for Kindle reading content again. It would cost thousands of dollars to replace most people’s physical books with the same books in electronic format – this guide will show you where to look and find thousands of books so you can read to your heart’s content.
This guide also provides a brief overview of how to transfer books to your Kindle, the various file formats that are compatible with the Kindle, and how to download free books from the Internet and transfer to your Kindle.
The book has the following topics covered in detail for you to enjoy your Kindle experience:
1. Guide Layout
2. Transferring Books to Your Kindle
3. Types of File Extensions
4. How to Download Books to Your Computer
5. Sources for Free Kindle Books
6. My Blogs

 Awesome Resource for Free Stuff! December 9, 2009

My sister showed me this book over Thanksgiving on her Kindle, and I studied it for a long time researching the various place to find free Kindle books so I decided to get my own copy. For the price, I think this is worth every penny and then some! It actually seems to point you to well over a million free books if you had the time to read that many in your lifetime. In addition to telling you specifically how to find the free books on the Amazon website, it points you to 20 other places with a description of the content and format of each one. Now that's useful information to me! We're in a recession and I am trying to watch every penny so I need something free!
The book also shows you how to transfer the books to your Kindle, which I imagine is helpful to kindle owners - my sister seems to think so but I can not comment as I am using the PC kindle application (can't afford to shell out the bucks for a Kindle in this economy). Now I may have to try out this guy's blog!
Well worth the investment. January 27, 2010

I paid $2 and I have already downloaded four free books from non Amazon sites. It's simple math. Also gives a tutorial on how to move info to Kindle. Can't go wrong with this one.

This is one of the first books that I downloaded. I have not completely read the whole thing, or searched all the web sites it recommends for free books. There are alot to review yet. I was impressed with all the hints and information for the Kindle, particularly the fact that the power cord turns into the USB cord when you take the end that plugs into the wall off!! I knew I was supposed to get a USB cord with it but thought "oh well, didn't get it". I would never have known that if it wern't for this book. Thank you for that, and all the other great info. Great price too.

I have to admit that i was skeptical in buying this book. I bought it because it was only 99 cents, and expected that I would not get my money's worth out of it. Clearly, I was wrong. I could not believe how many sites for free kindle books were listed. This is a very informative book that helped me enlarge my kindle library.
