They added Lois McMaster Bujold's
The Warrior's Apprentice this year in anticipation of the
Cryoburn release and some short story collection selections from Night Shade Books, who are the only other publisher who've made contributions to the Free Library, I believe. They just haven't bothered updating the listings on the main site. But it all shows up at Webscriptions.

T5thE runs with Baen's knowledge and blessing. And those bundled CDs make me consider getting stuff I wouldn't normally, as well as first-run hardcover editions of stuff that I would, just for the bonus, even if the included books are mostly repeats or stuff I already own.
