Free (Kobo) 17 titles from Tyndale [Xtian YA, Sports, Memoir, WWII, Tolkien, Etc.]

[ATDrake]

So there's a lot of over a dozen glitch freebies from Christian publisher Tyndale House in the Kobo store tonight, at least if you're looking from a Canadian (only 8 available, though) or US perspective (17 besides the permafreebie bible and short story). These may possibly be available in other regions, but I checked the UK and none of them are free there, though YMMV.

It's a mix of fiction and non-, including historical WWII Holocaust and modern sports celebrity memoirs, some pop-culture comparative faith examinations/devotionals based on Lord of the Rings and Batman , YA horseracing & mystery/sci-fi adventure novels, historical & historical romance & contemporary romance novels, etc.

Almost all of these have been free previously in the past, and where applicable I've also included their old MR threads with more info in them in case you wanted to do some quick checking to see if they miraculously price-drop in the usual standard stores, or just want to have a look at some of the discussion that people had about the books at the time.

The one that looks new is at the very top, and I've grouped the others loosely by availability & subject matter

1. Castaway Kid: One Man's Search for Hope and Home by R. B. Mitchell, his memoir of his life in an orphanage and subsequent conversion @ Kobo (not available to Canadians), appears to be new.
2. The Secret Holocaust Diaries: The Untold Story of Nonna Bannister by Nonna Bannister, her WWII Holocaust survivor memoir @ Kobo (available to Canadians), MR thread.

I believe that Walking with Frodo may be the only one that hasn't been free on Kindle in the past (or, I missed it when it was; I had all the others, tho).
