Kindle free books: Lemony Snicket's Series of Unfortunate Events [OFFER EXPIRED]

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/se...ony%2C Snicket

With a couple of exceptions - most of the series of unfortunate events are free at Amazon at the moment.

Thanks for this, greencat! I haven't read Lemony Snicket before so this is an great opportunity to sample them for free. Only two of the series were still priced at $8.99 but as you indicated, I got a bunch at $0.00. Don't have a Kindle so downloaded them to my laptop using Kindle for PC and that works just fine for me.

Thanks so much! I have these all in hardback, but it's nice to add them to my digital library as well!

Certainly far from "free" here in the UK.

Yep, Amazon want exterminating for bumping up international pricing. There is a way around it - I'm based in the UK myself and somehow they always come through as free for me. Unfortunately I can't remember how I did it.

I wonder - all but 3 are free in USA - if we're supposed to get carried away clicking on the free titles and "accidentally" add the other ones at $8.99. Or will we talk ourselves into buying the other 3 to have a complete set?

I am using a separate account with no credit card to get the American freebies (which cost $2 in Canada even if you do not download wirelessly) so I did not buy the other 3. But it does bug me a little to have a set that is almost---but not quite---complete

To clarify, when I say that are not free in the UK, I don't mean that they are the usual $2.30 that "free" books cost; I mean that they are what look like full-price, ranging from about $4.50 to over $12.

I'm surprised to see that they're Harper Collins books, with the "price set by publisher" blurb, so in theory they should be free everywhere, right???

I was disappointed to see that three of them were $8.99. So.. I got none of them. Why aren't they all free? Wah!

Perhaps this was a joke I'm missing, but I can't imagine complaining about stuff that is free. The entitlement mentality of society is really becoming frightening.

I did find it odd that #1 wasn't among the freebies, but who am I to complain about free stuff. If someone wants to offer me something for free I will either accept it or decline it. Complaining that they didn't offer "enough" for free is ridiculous. If you love the series enough that you want it all, paying $27 to get all 13 books is a deal.

I thought it was obvious that my post was tongue-in-cheek. I guess not. But, thanks for judging me.
