I, Morgana by Australian author Felicity Pulman (
ISFDB,
Wikipedia) is her standalone Arthurian historical fantasy novel giving the life and times of Exactly Whom It Says In The Title, free courtesy of publisher Pan Macmillan Australia's Momentum.
This is apparently being made free to promote the author's vaguely-related but not a sequel upcoming Arthurian timeslip fantasy,
The Once and Future Camelot, slated for release in two more days. I'll also mention that we've previously received an unrelated 1st-in-series YA historical murder mystery freebie from the author,
Blood Oath, which I read and liked enough to buy the rest of the series during Momentum's CyberMonday sale last year, and can recommend as worth your time to read if you're interested.
Currently free @
Amazon (available to Canadians & in the
UK),
Kobo &
iTunes &
Google Play &
eBooks.com (all available to Canadians, and DRM-free at Kobo). Price-drop-check linkage for
B&N where these usually take a few extra days to drop, and
Momentum's catalogue listing, which apparently is transitioning away from their built-in DRM-free webstore (a mistake to do so, IMHO), but whence the parent
Pan Macmillan Australia store apparently now sometimes offers their freebies eventually (as ADE-DRM ePubs with limited download capability; which strikes me as a kind of retrograde business decision, as they now have to pay for the added DRM).
And this has been the (late!) selected 3rd (non-repeat) free ebook thread of the day.
Because not only are sfnal freebies always welcome, I'd have probably loved this even more back during my Arthuriana days, and getting such a tale from an author whose other historical stuff I've already tried and liked is cause for
Enjoy!
Description
You know my name, but you don't know my story ...
After being schooled in magic by Merlin and promised a kingdom, Morgana is robbed of her birthright and betrayed by everyone she has ever trusted and loved. Risking everything for revenge, Morgana uses her magical arts to trap Merlin, threaten her half-brother King Arthur, and turn away the only man she will ever love. In her quest to destroy Arthur and Camelot, Morgana sets in motion a catastrophe that threatens the future of her world. Can she put things right before it's too late, or has she sealed their fate forever?
This is the untold story of Morgan le Fay, one of the most enigmatic—and reviled—characters in Arthurian legend.
