zelda_pinwheel · 10-06-2009, 04:03 PM

All our antipodean friends can get a free ebook of Christopher Ride's The Schumann Frequency directly from Random House this month (from the website : "This promotion is running from 09:00am (AEST) on 1/10/2009 and closes 17:00pm (AEST) on 31/10/2009.") but you'll have to sign up for the monthly Random House newsletter to do it. Up to you to decide whether it's worth it or not.

Thanks, Zelda. It's a DRMd ePub, and will go on my to be dedrmd list and on my TBR list.

I quite like to give publishers who release ebooks little pats on the head, so I didn't mind signing up to their mailing list.

Regards, Alex

Thanks for that Zelda. The first ever Aussie publisher freebie.

I didn't mind subscribing to an occasional junk mail to give support to the company that's provided a lot of freebies over the last year.

i'm thrilled you guys are excited about it.

i agree, it's nice to reward publishers when they take a step in the right direction. you've no idea how many publisher newsletters i receive now.

Oops, I forgot about Hal Spacejock

Book 1 was made available as a free ebook quite a while ago and since it was a Dymocks bestseller it qualifies as a publisher freebie
