I have had a fantasy trilogy for sale for some time now and my sales went up about 500% after I made the first book free, even factoring out the loss of the sales from that opening title. I have just published the third book in a four-book series and am planning on dropping the price of the first book to free; even discounted to $1.00 I was only selling a handful of copies, with only a fraction of the interest I've gotten in the trilogy. Even with half of my books available as a "free preview" I still find that I get many more downloads (and presumably, based on the sales results, later purchases of my other titles) when I make the whole book available for free.
