Sure, that's no guarantee of of a great read, but at least it lowers the odds against tripe. Sorry to sound so grumpy. Neil

This is so unfair... I have read many free/cheap books from self-published authors, which were beautifully formatted and edited to a point, where you could find no errors...
Your post is offensive to me, and I don't even write books.
P.S. In answer to the OP's question, I think a lot of people would read your book if you offered if for free - if it's in their preferable genre.
