Free Kindle Books 4-30-13

PLEASE. Do everyone a favor and write an Amazon review if you end up reading a book (or trying to and giving up in disgust). It does not have to be much. Just tell what you think of the book.

From the top 100 free list

Lethal Circuit: Spy Action Adventure for Mystery Thriller Fans (#1)
[#25. Back for a 4th day. A spy book that I snagged when it was free back in May of 2012 but never got around to reading.]

Season Of The Harvest (Harvest Trilogy, Book 1)
[#30. Its 2nd day on the list this time. This was free about a month ago. I got it but have not looked at it.]

Nikola Tesla: Imagination and the Man That Invented the 20th Century
[#34. Its 10th day on the list. This one is definitely not for everyone, but as an electrical engineer, it caught my eye.]

[#30. Its 4th day on the list.]

Secrets: The Hero Chronicles (Volume 1)
[#54. A so called young adult book I think. Its 2nd day on the list.]

Collapse Depth
[#55. Its second day on the list. I got it yesterday and read it. It is quite good. I gave it 5 stars. Well worth reading IMO if you like the military thriller genre. Kind of far fetched as far as plot goes, but fun.]

The Mating (Law of the Lycans)
[Remains on the list at #64.]

Burning (Brotherhood of the Blade Trilogy #1)
Presented by #1 bestselling Kindle author, J.R. Rain. Fast moving, romantic supernatural thriller with humor, heart and romance...

What would you do if everything - and everyone - you loved was taken from you?

Rand Sebastian, ex-Navy SEAL and now a full-time family man, is about to discover that evil lurks in the world. Real evil. And when this darkness comes after him and his family, he will do everything he can to stop it...and to save his loved ones.

Now trained by the legendary Brotherhood of the Blade in a remote castle setting, Rand will learn all the skills necessary to find his missing daughter...and to stop the killers who prey on mankind.

Burning is a full-length novel and the first of a trilogy.

The next two books in the series will be available throughout 2013.

[6 reviews - all 5 star for whatever that is worth if anything. This was on the top 100 free list a few days ago and I picked it up. It might have been free since then and just slipped off the list. The editor is an author that is shows up on the list regularly.]

101 best jokes
[Remains on the list at #73.]

The Keeping (Sequel to The Mating)
[Remains on the list at #75.]

Bonded (Prequel to The Mating)
[Remains on the list at #85.]

Betrayed: Days of the Rogue
[A Law of the Lycans holdover at #91.]

The Finding (Law of the Lycans #3) (The Law of the Lycans)
[Still on the list at #94.]

The werewolf books have been steadily falling on the list. I guess the campaign by its fans is running its course. One of these days I will try to read the first one and see if I like it or not.

From the AR15.com free book thread

Vampire Vic

Would you give up donuts…for blood? Fat, balding accountant Victor Thetherson hoped becoming a vampire would turn his life around. But Victor can’t stomach confrontation and gets queasy at the sight of blood. Instead he gets it from the blood bank, diluted in bloody Bloody Marys. The result: a vampire who doesn’t bite, and a man who gets no respect.
Victor’s slacking staff mockingly calls him Vampire Vic. Victor’s boss amuses his wife by intimidating Victor on video. His ex makes him stay out late while she entertains boyfriends in the house she insists they continue to share. One night it finally boils over, and Victor bites someone. And then another…and very soon, he’s no longer visiting the blood bank.
Muscle replaces fat, and his comb-forward widow’s peak takes root. Victor basks in newfound attention and respect, at the office and at home. But real vampires get hunted, and as the transformation reaches the tipping point, Victor must decide how much he’s willing to sacrifice for the power of the vampire.
