Just another excerpt anthology. There are dozens of them now, as apparently Harper considers them both desired by readers (since so many get suckered into grabbing them for free) and successful (if it doesn't actually increase sales, it does increase the ranking, usually, of the actual book, which in itself can lead to increased sales).
I boycott these entirely - If I was interested in his work, it's easy enough to download actual samples of actual books, without cluttering both my library and reader with "sample anthologies".
