I think that TrevorViking and I must have been cut from the same piece of cloth. I sense that he will balk at paying for a book when he knows that it has been cheaper, or even free, at some previous time. Anyway, that's the way that I am.

About 95% of the text of this short (33 pages, and using large type at that) book is dedicated to listing Kindle public domain books. This in itself is not all that helpful--books like that are easy to find at Amazon.

However, this list would have tremendous value if the author has used some knowledge and experience to select the better books under each topic. I say, "if"--I have my doubts that the author has done this.

There is not much "meat" in the other 5% or so of the text, which tells how to search for free books at Amazon. This is the gist of it:
". . . . type 'Free Kindle book' and add the Christian topic you are interested in . . . . Remember, these are daily specials . . . . Now try, 'Free Kindle books' and add the last name of your favourite [sic] Christian author". Then, he gives a couple more examples of topics that you can search for.

I've said all of that to say this: there is not much in this booklet that you don't probably already know.
