Happy New Year

Free Books from Random House Publishing

Random House posted 9 free full-length novels at Fictionwise. These offers are usually limited so go to the web site now. In order to download the books you will need to register as a member at Fictionwise. This is a free registration. The books are available only in Secure e-Reader format and the following quote is from the Fictionwise website.

“eReader software allows you to read secure (encrypted) eBooks on PalmOS Handheld or Smartphone, Windows Mobile PocketPC (Professional), Windows Mobile Smartphone (Standard), Symbian s60 and UIQ, Windows PCs and Laptops and Apple Macintosh. The software is free and can be downloaded here. eReader software uses your credit card number as the "unlock code" to read your secure eBooks.”

Note that the books can only be opened with your credit card number. Even though the books are free you need to enter credit card information in order to open and read. If you have purchased books previously you do not have to re-enter, just remember which credit card you used on your last purchase.

My eBookwise reader will not accept the eReader format so I downloaded the software and books to read on my Apple. Reading on the computer is not my favorite way to read but "The books are Free".

Here are the books that are available FREE:

Alan Furst, The Foreign Correspondent

Julie Garwood, Murder List

Charlie Huston, A Dangerous Man, Caught Stealing, and Six Bad Things

David Liss, The Whiskey Rebels, A Novel

Laurie Notaro, The Idiot Girl and the Flaming Tantrum of Death

Arthur Phillips, Prague

Simon Rich, Free Range Chicken

Download and enjoy
