Free Book (Kindle/Nook/Sony) - Listen

koland · 01-30-2011, 03:31 AM

Listen , by Rene Gutteridge, is free courtesy of Christian publisher Tyndale House.

Book Description
Nothing ever happens in the small town of Marlo . . . until the residents begin seeing their private conversations posted online for everyone to read. Then it’s neighbor against neighbor, friend against friend, as paranoia and violence escalate. The police scramble to identify the person responsible for the posts and pull the plug on the Website before it destroys the town. But what responsibility do the people of the town have for the words they say when they think no one is listening? Life and death are in the power of the tongue.

There seems to be an abundance of Christian themed books flooding the market for "free". Is this a new phenomena?

This particular title sounds really interesting. I can't wait to check it out.

"New" as in for the last year or so, perhaps.

For about that long, Tyndale House and some other Christian publishers have been promoting their authors with a few free books, nearly every week. Some of these authors are EXTREMELY prolific, so you may eventually get a half-dozen titles from the same one, if you scoop them all up.

Well, I'm willing to give it a go. I don't like heavy handed - preachy tones, so I would normally stay away (even though I understand the importance of faith as a whole). Listen, however, has caught my attention.

There also seems to be an abundance of non-christian themed books for free.

Yes, but they've been there for a much longer time, at least, it seems that way to me. My point was the "flooding" the market, part. I found it interesting. I had not noticed so many Christian themed books before. I was neither cheering nor complaining, just observing.

It is the last I will say on the topic.
