What is the sci-fi element in that?

IMHO, moden-day vampire hunting falls into the Urban Fantasy category, which is an off-shoot of the overall Science Fiction genre. No matter how you slice it, still free.

Yeah, free's good.
But I object to the sf label unless the vampires were created through biotech or the knights are hunting them with energy weapons.

Got it. I went into the live chat and they applied a credit in order for me to get the book for free.

Good

Until they get it fixed, we'll have to get a rep to apply the credit.

Enjoy!

What I wonder is how I'm ever going to find time to listen to all the freebies I've already accumulated.

I don't think it'll ever be possible. I thought I was doing great this weekend - I finished 27 hours over about 6 titles while on a trip. Then, I get home and what do I find? I got 84 hours of new free titles, and I still have $6 in freebie credits to spend! Does it count if I listen in my sleep?

they gave me the 99 cents back.

and stole the book out of my library. ;(

ETA - called them, they said the book is supposed to be free (even though the page now shows 99 cents at audible, which is why it keeps charging, I suspect; it shows free on the amazon side). so, she put the book back into my library. ... then gave me another $5 credit because of the hassle!

Hopefully, they get this sorted out soon.
