I picked this up yesterday, so I think kg3 just picked it up late in the 24-hour cycle.
I've seen his books as freebies fairly frequently though (have picked up 4 since May); I'll keep an eye out and post here when I see them again. |

Another Shepherd Mead title is free today:
The Big Ball of Wax: A Novel of Tomorrow's Happy World Were you disturbed by 1984? Here is what could happen if things turned out the other way. In the happy world of 1992, breakfast foods are ready-chewed for hurried mornings, human beings smell like pine trees, and the constellation PEPSI COLA wheels around in the sky. Everything is so wonderful—until a delectable young lady named Molly Blood comes along with something called XP. It stands for Experience, for utter ecstasy for everybody by electrical current. In fact, it's so beautiful that people are terrified and have to take violent action. |

This one is free on Amazon US & UK today:
"Dudley, There Is No Tomorrow!" "Then How About This Afternoon?" It is almost impossible to describe the wild and unconventional hilarity of this novel by the author of How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying. With a Great Gatsby atmosphere and Goonish pace, it tells of a crumbling Long Island Railway station beside the glittering North Shore, where no train stops, or ever will again. Once the station was worthless: now (some say) it is beyond price. Here is a wide variety of rare fauna: on the one hand a corpse, on the other a very alive ex-wife, to say nothing of two members of an entirely new species of aunt, who will not remind you of any of your relations. Finally, there is a blonde priestess of erotic balneal rites, an ex-long-distance swimming star believed to hold a valuable clue to what's going on, whatever that is. And through it all—for just six days!—wanders DUDLEY, bringing with him the priceless gift of catastrophe. "DUDLEY" is prime comic invention—and also a savage satirical portrait of American organization man, at home. You'll find the adventures of Dudley the funniest (and also the most serious) writing to come from one of the wisest and wittiest men, Shepherd Mead. |

Another title free today on Amazon:
How to Succeed at Business Spying by Trying: A Novel About Industrial Espionage Amazon UK Spy, counterspy, Casanova, and technological Machiavelli, Mark Price is an agent for big business's latest headache, Industrial Espionage. His exploits as he goes about exposing a monstrous conspiracy against the industrial heart of America are at once wild, hilarious, and deadly serious. Along the way he tangles with an assortment of zany characters, including a trio of engagingly odd and highly sexed charmers and a patriarchal embodiment of the American Dream, before his ingenious sleuthing culminates in a shattering climax in the best comic tradition of the Marx brothers. |
