Free books (Kindle) 40+ Infinite Ideas non-fic [Self-Help, Business, Classics, etc.]

These don't seem to have been posted in the main comm, and in case they're set to expire tomorrow, if you haven't already gotten them via one of the blogs or affiliate threads, you might want to spend a bit of time this weekend picking them up if you're interested:

Publisher "Infinite Ideas", who, apparently, are aiming to be the new "Vook", has 40+ assorted non-fiction freebie titles available in the main and UK Amazon stores.

These are a bit more substantial (or at least longer) than the Vook freebies, and cover a number of subjects from "lessons-to-be-learned-from" business-advice commentaries on classics such as Karl Marx's Das Capital and Miyamoto Musashi's The Five Rings, to self-help guides for learning to play guitar and losing weight and improving your sex life and parenting your kids (which I suppose would be a natural outcome of improving your sex life, if not using birth control).

Search linkage to pull up all the titles from the publisher sorted by lowest price first from Amazon main and UK (these do not seem to be free at Amazons DE or FR). You may need to click the "show unfiltered" bit at the bottom of the results to display them all.

One additional title which won't be pulled up by the search link because they've listed it under a different imprint (but other books in the same series are from Infinite Ideas) is The Feel Good Factory on Great Sex: Mind-blowing, Earth-moving, Pulse-racing Secrets to Spice Up Your Love Life (main, UK) which is far less exciting than it sounds, since it turns out to be a self-confidence/relationship-building guide and if you want actual sexyfuntimes-improvement tips, you're better off with the "porn star sex secrets" or "raunchy role play" books from the lot above.

Anyway, happy reading and hopeful self-improvement if you decide to pick them up.

From Amazon: Editorial Reviews
Review

“The search for a successor to JK Rowling has become a pressing issue... in the running is Catherine Cooper. Her first book, The Golden Acorn, was the winner at the inaugural Brit Writers' Awards and recounts the exploits of young hero Jack Brenin, as he meets talking ravens and explores mythical landscapes.” Vanessa Thorpe, The Observer
Product Description

When Jack Brenin finds a golden acorn lying in the grass, little does he know that it is the beginning of a thrilling and magical adventure. Just an ordinary boy, Jack has been chosen for a hugely important task, and enters a world he believed only existed in legend. Full of twists and turns, talking ravens and mischievous Spriggans, 'The Golden Acorn' is a hugely entertaining and exciting tale from a very talented new author. Your kids will love it, and so will you! This brilliant story deservedly won the Brit Writers' Awards 2010 for unpublished writers. Jack’s adventures continue in 'Glasruhen Gate' and 'Silver Hill'.
About the Author
Catherine Cooper was a primary school teacher for twenty-nine years before deciding she'd love to write for children. Catherine's love of history, myths and legends and the Shropshire countryside around where she lives, shines through in her charming stories.

4.0 out of 5 stars Enchanting Tale (KINDLE VERSION), March 15, 2011

This review is from: The Golden Acorn (The Adventures of Jack Brenin) (Kindle Edition)
This is how Kindle books should be produced complete with maps and line drawings which you can zoom in for more detail. For some strange reason it opened at the start of the story so unless you go to menu and select the map or page backwards from the start you will miss the delightful maps.
This is a children's book in the tradition of the Enid Blyton books such as the "faraway tree" and although at the end there is some violence it is suitable for all ages, a welcome change. With talking animals, birds, trees and even time travel there is something for everyone and although it has a basic quest theme it is well written. It is book one of a series but it stands alone and although it is set up at the end for the next book there are no loose ends that require the next book to be read although you should.
