If you haven't checked out this sale, drop everything that you're doing--now!

There are several hundred titles in this sale that are absolutely free. The majority of the titles are non-fiction. I am at a loss to explain this sudden, unprecedented (in my 10 years or so experience buying Kindle ebooks) largesse on the part of Open Road Media.

There are various subgenres represented. If you don't see one that you expect, make sure that the subject menu on the far lefthand side is fully maximized.

Careful--the search is low to high, so the prices can change from free to not free from one ebook to the next. In one case, an ebook was $0.00, and the next one was $6.19. Yes, Amazon (probably) will refund your money, but if you accumulate what they deem as too many refund requests, they make you call a "customer service" telephone number to get one or more of the last ones approved. And that's a hassle.

Open Road Media is not a publisher that participates much in the Whispersync deal program, and there are a relatively small number of the free books, at least, that offer Audible narration for a reduced price. But there are a handful of outstanding deals, anyway. I hope that I have time to look at that more closely tonight but, if not, at least I've got the portion of the deal (the ebook one) that fluctuates far more commonly already locked in, so that I can pick up the audio later as the Whispersync companion.

If this ends up being a pricing mistake, they can't take away from us the books that we've already "purchased," can they? Does anyone know?

Well, they cannot take them away from me as I'm downloading them now.

I've downloaded 517 SF/Fantasy eBooks.

There are at least 2500 books of all categories available for free, and I already owned about 150 of the SF/fantasy. I'm not sure when Calibre will finish downloading all of the book descriptions for me, but it's probably going to take hours to verify them all.

Unless this is some kind of pricing glitch, it looks like Open Road would have trumpeted this sale, instead of letting customers stumble upon it or learn about it from some other source.

That's what I thought also, but this facebook page by an Open Road Media digital marketer makes me wonder if it's only being publicized on facebook, or if there will be an announcement in an email in the next day or so.

If you use this link and the filters on the left side of the page, you'll find that there are thousands of titles that are fiction (SF/Fantasy, Mystery, Horror, Classic Lit, etc.)

Also, when you find a book/author you want, I suggest going to that specific page instead of using 1-Click. Often you'll see other related titles listed (i.e. "Customers Also Bought") that either you or the search may have missed.

My TBR pile just grew by several hundred.

Almost 500....I'm crazy! Some really good authors in there, though, can't resist!

Holy smokes. I've got about 50 Amazon tabs open as I go through these by subgenres... I've no idea how many I've already grabbed and I've only just started. Merry Christmas, indeed!

I finally stopped at 277. It would be higher if I didn't already own a bunch of the included titles.
