Posted: 18:17 - 12 Jun 2011 Post subject: Best place for free ebooks? |
|
|
I have long periods of non-activity at work right now and having an ebook reader on my phone I'd like to download some books to while the time away.
Where can I find a catalogue of cheap or free ebooks for browse/download? ____________________ a.k.a 'Geri'

Dunno if the free trial period is over yet, but audible.co.uk had some freebie audio books available recently
and as suggested, there are other alternative routes to get them too... ____________________ 1st bike (Sept'06 - May'10) : 1991 GPZ500S / Current bike (since Nov 2009) : 2003 Suzuki Bandit 600N

Cheers
I've found that simply following google links to free ebook downloads is a great shortcut to receiving unwanted 'fake spyware' downloads ____________________ a.k.a 'Geri'

If you have an Android phone, fbreader can fetch books from places like Gutenburg, Smashwords and Feedbooks for you pretty seamlessly. If you can't get it for your phone you can still download the books straight from those sites and pop them on your memory card yourself.
It's definitely worth trawling these sites as there are some books that are past copyright stage yet places like Kindle still charge for them, so you can save a couple of pounds. ____________________ H100 Breaking for spares |
