The Heretic - free ebook of the day [OFFER ENDED]

The Heretic, book one of the Templar Chronicles trilogy, was free ebook of the day over at Ebooknewser yesterday and I've decided to leave it up for a few days longer. If you're looking for gritty urban fantasy, drop by and take a look...

http://www.mediabistro.com/ebooknews...-the-day_b2415



In this internationally bestselling series from Bram Stoker and International Horror Guild Award nominee Joseph Nassise, the ancient Templar Order has been resurrected as a secret combat arm of the Vatican, charged with defending mankind from the supernatural enemies that threaten them at every turn.

At center stage is Knight Commander Cade Williams, a veteran of the Order and a man torn between his thirst for vengeance and his need to discover what happened to him during an encounter with a supernatural entity known as the Adversary five years before. Cade leads the famed Echo Team, a special forces-style unit that gets called out when things go from bad to worse.

Spectres, revenants and even fallen angels theyre all in a days work for the men of Echo Team and their mysterious commander.

Cklls and SkyDream - thanks for checking it out. Hope you enjoy it.

frquixote - Glad you liked it. The other two books in the trilogy - A scream of Angels and A Tear in the Sky, are also available now if you're interested.

I highly do not recommend reading this book or the others in the series. I find it appalling that Amazon has the other two eBooks in the series for $2.99 and the others including Smashwords are more expensive by about a dollar or more. Now if the author would make this the same price in all the various formats, that would be fine. But he's not. So please stay away.

Also, I downloaded the first book and found the formatting for the Mobipocket and ePub to be in serious need of fixing.

What's wrong with charging more for access to multiple, non-DRM'd formats? I have no problem with "the more limited-use version is cheaper."

Domestic violence is appalling. Racism is appalling. Different prices for an ebook from different vendors? Please.

Never mind the fact that the book is being given away for free so the entire issue of price is irrelevant.

ok, so tell me what I've done wrong... I went to the link, which led to your site, which led to a link to click for a sony reader download.

GraceKrispy,

Don't know what browser you are using, but suspect it might be Explorer and it hasn't been told about epubs. If so, what you will need to do is right click the SonyReader link on the webpage, then click "Save Target as..."

When the "Save as" Dialog box comes up, change the supplied file name so that it ends in epub instead of txt and the "Save as type" from the default of "Text Document" to "All Files" then click "Save"

Should download fine after that.

I'll try that-- I am actually on a mac, using safari and have been able to download other epubs before...

Yaay- success! I right clicked and saved it and when it asked if I wanted to append the .txt (it already said ".epub" as its extension), I said nope!

Thanks!
