Free (with geographical restrictions) Kindle/Nook/Sony/Kobo novel - Outlander
Title: Outlander: with Bonus Content
by Diana Gabaldon. Description: Claire Randall is leading a double life. She has a husband in one century, and a lover in another... In 1945, Claire Randall, a former combat nurse, is back from the war and reunited with her husband on a second honeymoon--when she innocently touches a boulder in one of the ancient stone circles that dot the British Isles. Suddenly she is a Sassenach—an "outlander"—in a Scotland torn by war and raiding border clans in the year of our Lord...1743. Hurled back in time by forces she cannot understand, Claire's destiny in soon inextricably intertwined with Clan MacKenzie and the forbidden Castle Leoch. She is catapulted without warning into the intrigues of lairds and spies that may threaten her life ...and shatter her heart. For here, James Fraser, a gallant young Scots warrior, shows her a passion so fierce and a love so absolute that Claire becomes a woman torn between fidelity and desire...and between two vastly different men in two irreconcilable lives.

Also available free @ Kobo if you live in the right area, which apparently does not include Canada. Kindle version also unavailable to us, probably because Gabaldon's books seem to be split between Delacorte Press in the US and Doubleday Canada up here.

Did anyone get the bonus content? I'm on with Kindle support and they don't see in the one they downloaded, either

Depends on what the bonus content is supposed to be. What I got has an excerpt from Dragonfly in Amber, an interview with the author, and a reader's guide.

ah, so it does exist. I'm calling back and trying again. That's what is supposed to be there, but isn't. Also isn't in the copy that Kobo has, which is identical to the one I've had on Kindle for a couple of years.

Took two calls to customer service, but the new book is now mine!
The ASIN Update Tool is the super-secret tool that the customer service person must use in order to get you the new edition of a book. No deletion or re-ordering is required. BTW, Kobo is still sending out the old version, even though their web page says they have the new one. |

Not sure how long this is good for: it's a publisher offer to celebrate the 20th anniversary. Go for it! |

What's the bonus content? I downloaded it from Kobo, but I didn't see anything in the table of contents that indicated there was any.

One book I downloaded had ...

The bonus content is a preview (part of Chapter 6) of Dragonfly In Amber, the second book in the series and a short interview (from 1999; the novel was first published in 1991) with the author, Diana Gabaldon.
Note: I got my free version from Amazon, and the bonus material I listed above is what's in the Kindle version. The Sony store does not mention any bonus material at all and the Kobo store mentions the two items I listed above as well as "an Outlander reader's guide." I don't have the Sony or Kobo versions, so someone else is going to have to check this. Last edited by Moe The Cat; 10-03-2010 at 10:00 AM. Reason: Added reference to Sony and Kobo stores |
