Jay Howard I'm acceding to popular demand here and giving members a place to offer their books for free. Let me make one thing quite clear though - they have to be genuine no-strings-attached offers. Treat this thread as you would an Amazon free promotion period: anyone who asks for the book can have it without a review being part of the deal. If you happen to get a review out of it that's fine. If you get some feedback, that's useful. But do not contact the member you've given the book to unless they initiate the exchange.

So, what can you post here?
--- details of free Amazon or other site promotion periods
--- offers to email a free copy of your book to a member who PMs you asking for one
--- offers like the one made by K.A. Krisko - for members who have reviewed her book Stolen as part of one of our reviewing groups she is willing to give free copies of the rest of the series to find out 'what happens next'

Please don't post your free offers in several places on this forum. Any messages outside this thread about free books will be deleted as usual.

Jay Howard A little reminder for everyone - this is a 'no strings attached to the free book offer' place.


message 3: by Jay (new)

Jay Howard We all hope for reviews, but the free offers here come without strings attached. There is no obligation to review and the authors undertake not to pursue the readers by PM or any other means.

Melinda Brasher Chaos Rises by Melinda Brasher Free fantasy short story:

https://www.smashwords.com/books/view...

Chaos Rises

The day the hill tiger attacks, young Hala realizes excitedly that she may have the gift. As time passes, however, she wonders what good it is: a power that manifests itself only in the ability to accidentally summon animals at inconvenient times. The local mage hasn't been able to teach her to control it, and she can't even reliably summon her own sheep. Then one day she returns home to find a black-cloaked stranger holding her village under a terrible spell. Alone, she must find a way to save her family, her friends, and the boy who has finally begun to notice her.

Jay Howard REMINDER - what 'no strings' means

It was stated quite clearly that this thread is for 'no strings' free book offers. Please do not say things like 'in exchange for a review' - you can hope to get a review, but it's not a formal or informal part of the deal.

If you pass a free copy via PM/email the author should afterwards wait for contact, if any, from the receiver, no pestering them for opinions/reviews or anything.

Philip J McQuillan Free until the cows come home, the idea being to pay it

forward. Please don't judge a book by its cover (price).

:)

link: Grandfather's Uncle

A lovingly crafted memoir, offered with a single-minded purpose, can offer the rare opportunity to really get to know an obscure but great human being through literature. In the style of the old Reader's Digest monthly feature
Growing up during the Great Depression, Philip had to contend with scarcity, hand-me-downs and a dearth of education options. His older brothers and sisters had all been "guided" into a convent or the priesthood. So how did Philip become a stalwart family man and neighborhood icon? Simply…he met Jean!

Philip had a passion for cooking, quoting Shakespeare and for standing on his head. He could say stuff like “anything you can do I can do better” and yet remain a very humble man.

The story begins with a glimpse of his pre-Depression origins, then fast-forwards almost forty years to his colorful home life, favorite hobbies and the mini-obsessions that made him such a memorable character. Philip’s little recipes, his night job as a radio announcer, his board game "crimes" and his love for horse racing, golf and gardening all combine to paint the richly detailed portrait of a man we cannot help but grow to love."

Alexander Hicks Living Companion, debut work.

Living Companion

Summary:

A man obsessed with his work, tormented by inability to produce it and imprisoned with devotion to the cause of his madness. Struggling with anxiety, he shares a lodging with a painter, a free-spirited woman, who could very well be his ruin.

Burdened with observations and her interruptions, one thing surfaces as inevitable - he is compelled to ceaselessly think, awaiting for the end of his life work, or his own.


Always free (pdf, mobi, epub) at: Living Companion - smashwords

All opinions greatly appreciated.

Kat Joe, a quick note--we don't recommend posting email addresses in the forums. Just like all other public websites, GR has its share of spammers and bots that will grab your address and start sending you loads of author related spam. I would suggest editing your message to remove the email and allow people to contact you through GR direct messages.

For getting reviews through this group, I would suggest joining a reading round:

https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

Or try the one for one list:

Jennifer I cleaned up this topic to make it easier for people looking at it to find offers that are still valid. Any message with an e-mail address or requiring PMs to get a free copy was deleted since we no longer have PMs and posting your e-mail in forum is not safe. Any messages with expired offers, broken links, no links, or messages where all the links in them took me to books that now cost money were deleted. Any message saying copies were only free to reviewers or to people joining a mailing list or to those joining Audible was deleted. (If you are looking for reviews, please join a group that is forming or read one of the books on the one-for-one list here: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/group... ) Anyone running a contest was also deleted, please repost under that topic if you are still running one.

Since we no longer have DMs, if you want to post links and dates to when your book will be free on Amazon, or if you want to use a link to Smashwords or Dropbox or some other website where your book is offered publicly for free, this is the place you can do it. Please do not post links to anything you do not want the public to access because this is a public group and people outside it can see these posts.

If your book is only offered free to members of KU, please post it under that topic and not here. (I tried to transfer all the ones I caught before I deleted them here.) Thanks!

Reno Bachman Hello everyone,

I’m Reno Bachman, and I’m excited to share my debut novel, Dead Man’s Gospel: A Novel.

I’m currently offering free audiobook review copies through The Audiobook Review in exchange for honest reviews.

https://theaudiobookreview.com/dead-m...

Dead Man’s Gospel is a psychological Western that explores faith, violence, power, and survival. It follows Timothy Gospel, a man scarred by his upbringing under a preacher who weaponized belief, as he navigates a world where restraint is mistaken for weakness and every decision carries consequences.

If you enjoy:

• Psychological Westerns

• Character-driven stories

• Dark literary fiction

• Moral ambiguity

• Atmospheric historical settings

• Stories that explore faith, redemption, and survival

…this may be a good fit for you.

Audiobook details:

• Written by: Reno Bachman

• Narrated by: Quentin Ever-Ready

• Length: 10 hours 27 minutes

The audiobook is available through a free code request system on The Audiobook Review, where listeners can claim a copy and leave an honest review afterward. (The Audiobook Review)

If you decide to listen, I’d genuinely appreciate any honest feedback or reviews, whether positive, critical, or somewhere in between. Independent authors rely heavily on reader support, and every review helps more readers discover the book. (The Audiobook Review)

Side note: Dead Man’s Gospel: A Novel is also available in ebook and print editions at most major retailers.

Thank you for welcoming me into your group!


— Reno Bachman
