Free SF/Fantasy: October 2010 Webscription gift thread

pdurrant · 03-08-2011, 08:11 AM

I'm going to buy the October 2010 Baen webscription package shortly. When I do, I'll be able to also give it as a gift to anyone who hasn't already registered at the webscription web site. If you are already a webscription customer, this offer does not apply to you.

The October webscription consists of six complete multi-format ebooks of Science fiction and Fantasy from Baen Books:

1635: The Eastern Front by Eric Flint
MYTH-Interpretations: The Worlds of Robert Asprin by Robert Asprin
The Power of Illusion by Christopher Anvil
Monster Hunter Vendetta by Larry Correia
Fangs for the Mammaries by Esther Friesner
Of Berserkers, Swords and Vampires by Fred Saberhagen

Since October 2010 has come and gone, all six books are available for immediate download once you receive your gift.

The great thing about this offer is that the person who receives the gift can also gift the webscription to another person when they redeem their coupon.

INSTRUCTIONS
Post a comment in this thread, stating that you'd like to get this webscription package when you sign up at webscription.net. Do not sign up at webscription.net yet.

I will edit this message, adding people to the list below. Once you see your username on the list, send a private message with your email address (needed for the gift webscription process) to the person above you in the list.

I will buy the webscription month and use the email address I've received for the gift webscription. That person will receive an email from the webscriptions website, giving them a code to redeem their gift.
Once they have the redeem code, they use the email addresss sent to them by the next person on the list when redeeming their gift.
And so on....

I'll try to keep track of things by editing this message and in private messages with participants. We can usually manage several gift months before things break down, usually through over-zealous spam filters.

Short Instructions: Add a comment. Wait until your username appears on the list below. Send your email address to the person above you on the list.
