Free (nook/Books/Sony) The Front Porch Prophet - Raymond L. Atkins

This week's B&N Free Fridays from Medallion Press

The Front Porch Prophet - Raymond L. Atkins B&N ($7.96 Kindle)

Quote:
What do a trigger-happy bootlegger with pancreatic cancer, an alcoholic helicopter pilot who is afraid to fly, and a dead guy with his feet in a camp stove have in common? What are the similarities between a fire department that cannot put out fires, a policeman who has a historic cabin fall on him from out of the sky, and an entire family dedicated to a variety of deceased authors? Where can you find a war hero named Termite with a long knife stuck in his liver, a cook named Hoghead who makes the world's worst coffee, and a supervisor named Pillsbury who nearly gets hung by his employees? Sequoyah, Georgia, is the answer. After a long absence, A. J. Longstreet finds his best friend since childhood, Eugene Purdue, on his doorstep. Eugene now has terminal cancer, and he confronts A. J. with the dilemma of executing a mercy killing when the time arrives. An adventure into the past begins for the both of them, and soon one must make a decision that will alter his life forever.

The B&N "Free Fridays" books have always been exclusive in the time that I've been following them.

Not really. Probably half have been "already free books", many of the others have started out exclusive, then been matched (reporting the price to Amazon seems to help speed this up, especially if done by several hundred people). One exclusive has been the books published by B&N - the B&N Classics and I think Sterling.

The Publishers website says it will be free across all platforms 6/24 thru 7/8 so I would expect Kindle to be updated shortly.

Well I admit, I've only been following B&N's Free Fridays for a few weeks, now.

Either way I don't feel too restricted... the B&N books convert to mobi files for my Kindle quite nicely.

Now also free @ Sony (available to Canadians, surprisingly for the most recent batch of Sony freebie catch-ups, which are otherwise geo-restricted).
