I know Nightshade are one of the other publishers involved in webscriptions but as I understood it they are otherwise a seperate entity to Baen .
Ah, of course.
Nightshade has had a different marketing scheme within the Webscription umbrella all along. It makes sense that what appears to be their first entry into the "Free Library" venue would carry their own style. (Edit; based on that I went ahead and added The Improbable Adventures of Sherlock Holmes to my next months planned purchases.)

@ CraftyDan I'm not sure I follow you in regards to Anvil, in looking at the ebooks offered they both seem to be in the size range of a full ebook (~500KB - 1,100KB) (591Kb & 772KB for the free ebooks) where as the samples from Nightshade are in the ~250KB area. While Flint could have combined the two Interstellar Patrol ebooks it would have been a monster.
