Is this a mistake? There's over 100 free books over there...

Looks like they are all from Xlibris. Not sure what the deal is, but I doubt it's a mistake.

I know they sell them on their own website and nearly all are listed at $9.99 on Kindle -- but has anyone read any of these or heard of any of the authors? Many don't even have a synopsis included.

The XLibris ones are self-published authors.

Here are a couple of them that I found with a quick google for more info. I haven't heard of any of them. I wonder if they are first time authors? EDIT: I saw some published by smashwords and a lot by wattpad and Xlibris Corporation.
I found a review of The Chronicles of Illumaril by Gary Caplan here is part of it Quote:

I was checking out inkmesh.com this morning, and they've posted a list of over 90 free books at the Sony ebook store in about the last 20 hours in a variety of genres too numerous to mention.
They're all valid freebies. |

I haven't looked at Inkmesh in a while, but I just did and I am quite impressed! The site seems very easy to use. One minor change would be nice. On the main search page, the authors are not clickable to automatically search for other books by that author. Instead, you have to click on book and then you can click on the author. Saving a step might be nice! Keep up the great work!
