Free Kindle Books 10-28-13

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. By the way, many times I have found the 1 and 2 star reviews on self published works to be far more revealing about the book than the more stellar reviews. Reviewers need gratification too, so if a review is helpful to you, please click on the voting button to indicate it was helpful.

Most times these books are only free for a day or two, so you have to grab them while you can. Worry about whether you really want to read it later if it seems interesting. And be careful, they can change from free to not free at any time.

I have decided to list books for no more than one day to avoid cluttering up the posts, unless there is some reason I think the book deserves extra attention.I have also decided to consolidate to a single post, instead of sometimes splitting them up by subject matter.

From the top 100 free list
As is typical, there are also several religious and recipe books on the list today, along with the usual assortment of romance, porn and near porn. I don't call them out because they don't interest me. Click on the link above and search through the Free List Tab if you are interested in such books.

THE SEAL (Rosicrucian Quartet)
A Bestseller in Historical Fiction and the winner of Dymocks Critics Choice Awards, this book was translated into four languages and is a must for history buffs and Templar fans.

It is the year 1307 and the ancient Order of the Knights of Christ and the Temple of Solomon is in grave danger. The King of France and Pope Clement V are plotting its destruction and scheming to appropriate the Order's most sacred relic.  Etienne de Congost, a battle-weary but incorruptible man is ordered to flee with it, dodging plots and papal spies in a life and death struggle to keep its secret from evil hands. The outcome of Etienne's desperate journey is discovered 700 years later by a writer who visits Lockenhaus Castle in Austria to research a book on the Templars. Together with an eccentric local woman he begins to untangle the web of destiny that binds them both to the mystery of the Seal.

The 30 Minute Atkins Diet Expert: How To Drop Pounds and Keep Them Off
If you decide to give the New Atkins a trial, you will lose your taste for empty calories and useless carbohydrates that may have sabotaged your efforts in the past to lose weight and keep it off.

It is a diet in four acts or stages; Induction, Ongoing Weight loss, Pre-maintenance and Lifestyle Maintenance. Each of the four stages prepares you for the next level.

In reality, the New Atkins seeks to provide you with a template for a lifetime of healthy eating. In this sense it is not just another diet and becomes more of a lifestyle.

The original high protein, low carbohydrate diet drew the ire of health professionals, and, at the same time, garnered legions of fans across the globe.  Dr. Atkins is credited with refining and popularizing the low carbohydrate approach to a lifetime of successful weight control and healthy eating.
