Thanks a lot for sharing this information! I'm a long-time Baen customer, but never completely explored the free library.

The Mercedes Lackey books are good too...geared toward young adult. If you like the fantasy genre, pick them up while they are free. Shortened URL deleted by moderator

I would like to take a moment to express my thanks to baen for providing a free library. I think the free library gives authors an oportunity to make use of King Camp Gilette's Loss Leader concept by providing the first in a series for nothing, to get potential customers hooked on your books, then charging for the remainder. I just wish all of their authors had one book in the free library.

The Free Library has served many purposes since its founding but one of the bigger ones is building up the BAEN brand. For years and years they've built up a lot of goodwill for the publisher as well as the authors as well as promoting specific series. It makes *them* special. Otherwise... "If everybody is special, then *nobody* is special." |
