I thought I might try something a little different today. I have no access to AR15 from work so it is difficult for me to post here. I also find it somewhat faster and easier to post to my blog so I am going to try that.

Bob's list of Free Kindle books for 2-17-13

There is a bunch today. Many are from the top 100 free list and were also free yesterday.

Thank you for this! I use it everyday.

Is whogas OK?

He didn't even miss updates on Christmas day and now has missed two days in a row???

Hope everything is ok with him.

Good to go. A couple of members listed a number of books and I was not going to update their update. Others may offer very different subjects than what I do. It's that simple. I just did not want to scare any other contributors off. This is Our thread not mine.

Edit....See you in the morning.

http://ilbob.blogspot.com/2013/02/free-kindle-books-2-18-13.html

Other than the religious and children's stuff, we seem to have similar tastes in books.

I appreciate that others are filtering out the really bad ones and finding some interesting stuff that is often well hidden in the hundreds or even thousands of free kindle books that are available on a daily basis.

It is a fair amount of effort to just list them and format them so they hyperlink correctly. At least this way I can do most of the work on lunch time and then just link to it.

Even so it is time consuming and it is doubtful I will be able to do it every day.

glad to see you back. I have been amazed that you consistently come up with books I'm interested in.

thank you

inspiration that is hidden therein."

 Part satire, part traditional literary dystopia, Immemorial is a dark and witty exploration of identity, morality, religion and relationships against a backdrop of an England in turmoil.
  Note from the Author:
 I'm aware that this novel is essentially competing with recognised, well established authors - for that reason I'm under no illusions as to its value to the average librophile.

The defenders of the current crumbling capitalist system argue that it is simply “human nature” that brought about the misery within, and eventual demise of, the “Socialist Bloc.” For the remaining leftists who still cling to the tattered banner of one form or another of “Really Existing Socialism,” it was this or that strategic or tactical error (don't worry, they promise to do better next time)."

 A story of passion, intrigue and the fight to defend the land they love. This historical novel depicts the hard fought battles for control of the crucial waterways of the Tennessee River Valley and the South's Heartland.

People Other than Grunts...292 P
"This is not your usual tale of blood, guts, and heroism. Keep browsing if this is what you are seeking. If you want a true insider's view of life as a Soldier in the U.S. Army, this is it! Myles C. Page lived the life of the average soldier, serving 12 years at Fort Polk Louisiana, Fort Drum New York, along with four tours in support of Operations Iraqi and Enduring Freedom. Myles doesn't pull any punches in his stories (keep out of reach of children). This book can be used as a "how to" ("or how not to") for any person thinking of signing that dotted line, raising his or her right hand and answering the call to serve. There is gutter talk all throughout this book, so if you can be easily offended by foul language please don't bother picking this up."

Grant The Forgotten Hero ...732 P
"“Castigated by some, immortalized by few and forgotten by most.” Hardly a fitting tribute to one of America’s greatest heroes. Grant The Forgotten Hero chronicles the story of Ulysses S. Grant during the American Civil War. Ask an American what they remember about Ulysses S. Grant and they will recall that he was a heavy drinker, not that he was the President, nor one of the world’s greatest generals. An unusual legacy for the man most responsible for preserving this great nation. This book portrays Grant as an incredibly modest and humble man, perhaps the reason his true character failed to shine through. It tackles the old myths, head on, through logical analysis of the historical record and disproves most of the legend that has distorted his extraordinary military accomplishments. During the war, Grant captured three enemy armies intact and came within a whisker of capturing four, a feat unequalled in history and over so great a foe as Robert E. Lee. Ulysses S. Grant was one of America's greatest heroes, who sadly most Americans have forgotten."

Forever Hunger...248 P
"When NYPD Sergeant Roy Ruiz began working the serial killings with Detective Tim Rosetto, they had no way of knowing the killer whom they were hunting had been dead for over two hundred years.

25 Artisan Style Bread Recipes : Bake Beautiful Sweet and Savory Loaves at Home Without A Bread Machine (The Green Gourmet) 68 Pages
"New from #1 international best selling author Lori Jane Stewart.
  There is nothing more appetizing than the smell of bread cooking, and that is one of reasons why I have gathered together this collection of my favorite bread recipes.
  Even better, is bread made with yeast - real artisan bread uses only wild yeast starter, flour, water, and salt.
  In these recipes, I have tried to remain true to purist artisan bread but instead used readily available, active dry yeast rather than wild yeast starter. But I have adhered to one basic rule -– that all breads are made with yeast, by hand in small batches and without a fancy bread machine."

An A-Hole Gets In Shape (Etiquette For A-Holes) ..Humor...30 Pages
"A-Hole. That’s right, I said A-Hole. Don’t let the title scare you. Any word that you might hear on a primetime sit-com can’t really be a “bad” word, now can it? A-Hole sounds offensive, but really it’s just the best word that we have to describe those people, places and things that we encounter in our day-to-day lives that make us want to punch a hole in the steering wheel. A-Holes come in all shapes, ages, colors and sizes, but the one common thread is that they are all selfish, narcissists who think that the rules don’t apply to them. Whether they’re weaving down the freeway, cutting in line at the coffee shop or incessantly blabbing on their blue-tooth headset, they all get under our skin. Read along and we’ll laugh at the shared frustration that these A-Holes inflict on our lives, all the while realizing one universal truth: everyone has a little A-Hole in them."

Why Grandpa Works at Wal-Mart..30 Pages
"This is an illustrated, easy to understand book that teaches exactly how inflation (increasing the supply of money) results in increased prices. This story clearly shows the economic mechanism that leads to increased prices and the result on Grandpa’s fixed income. Written in the form of a children's book, this work is applicable for ages 8-100+. There are two reasons this book is unique:
1) It is a simple, illustrated book that accurately describes economics in story form.
2) Inflation affects everyone, but why prices rise is not generally understood."

Obamacare: Don't Understand It? You Are Not Alone!...42 Pages
"Are you having trouble understanding what the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act is all about? Are you unsure whether your health insurance company is doing it right? Do you wonder what has been implemented, what is subject to change, and what is still on the way? You are not alone! So do a lot of people!
 My purpose in this booklet is to give you both a broad overview and a somewhat more detailed discussion of the provisions of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, also known as Obamacare. While it’s almost impossible to talk about Obamacare without taking a partisan stance, I do intend to do just that. Yes, I have my opinions, but I really want to just stick to the facts, without bias, so you can decide for yourself whether and how much this law will affect your life, and how you plan to respond to the inevitable changes and challenges yet to come. I also hope to show how this sweeping legislation will affect the different segments of society. It’s a given, from what I’ve read so far, that they won’t all be affected in the same way. This, of course, is the basis for much of the controversy surrounding this new law."

To Feed the Sparrowhawks (This is the first of three parts of 'To Feed the Sparrowhawks') [Kindle Edition]
K. K. Brown (Author)


Book Description:
It is 1976, and Rhodesia has exploded into full-scale civil war.
The white settlers are fighting a vicious rearguard campaign in the vast Tribal Trust Lands and on remote and isolated border farms, against an ever more determined Black Nationalist foe.
Unwillingly sucked into this conflict, farmer Jumbo McQueen meets the girl of his dreams and hopes to build a future with her on his farm.
Caring nothing for politics, McQueen is drawn by a single wartime incident - and by his connections with members of the Security Forces - into the spiral of violence.
‘To Feed the Sparrowhawks’ simultaneously follows the fortunes of McQueen, the Guerrilla section that targets his farm, and McQueen’s Special Branch friend: Vic Bailey.
This is the first part of the three-book series and includes a preview of the second book, which is due to be launched in February 2013.

Sunday Update:

The Long Escape ...327 P
"This is a true story; a story of survival. It tells of how a boy and his family lived a life of hellish abuse, fought back, and learned to live with the memories. It is also an adventure tale, following the boy through the military buildup to the Viet Nam War, Pacific Island love affairs, and his personal battles in the Montana mountains."

The Fragile Peace...320 P
"A thriller of violent prejudices and divided loyalties. About the province where no-one talks, this story tells it like it is. This Ulster novel reaches to the very roots of sectarian life and death. Written by a member of the security forces, it penetrates behind the media-screen to reveal a human landscape that is unknown, yet startlingly believable. It is a world where sworn enemies may exchange confidences over a game of snooker; where a kneecapping operation turns into a deadly vendetta fuelled by sexual jealousy and where the fate of the United Kingdom could rest in the hands of one punch drunk bruiser with a dangerous addiction. Everything is here, from the glamour of hi-tech intelligence work to the despairing pub-talk of men locked in the past. Trace the origins of these relentless tit-for-tat killings, often starting in childhood and see how the lives of vastly different people may by mysteriously linked forever against the fatally beautiful backdrop of Northern Ireland."

Justice or Injustice? What Really Happens In A Jury Room...150 P
"This story is about a small town boy that was thrown into jury service on a highly publicized Capital Murder trial in Myrtle Beach, SC.

Its about the experiences of a juror and his fight to standup for his beliefs. The author will put you right in a jury seat during this trial so that you can experience his plight."

From The Heart Cookbook...152 Pages
"In just over a year, Amazon.com best-selling author Laura Henderson went from a single, full-time attorney who rarely had time to eat - let alone cook - to a wife and a business owner with a baby on the way.
As a child, Henderson learned at her Grandmother's feet that cooking is a way of connecting to the hearts of the ones we love. Even though we're all so busy nowadays, that doesn't mean there isn't time to make wholesome meals to feed the body, mind, and spirit, and Henderson will show you how.

Hurricane Katrina, A Journey Of Hope...92 Pages
"Imagine that when you wake up tomorrow, the clothes on your back will be everything you own. For so many of my fellow countrymen, this nightmare scenario quickly became their reality following the landfall of Hurricane Katrina.
If I had just one lesson to share as a result of my experience post-Hurricane Katrina, it would be this:
 When disaster strikes, there will be those who require the aid of their fellow man, and there will be those who are fortunate enough to escape serious harm. Those in the second group have the option of retreating to safety; if the situation warrants, they can return to help those in need who were unable to help themselves.
 Do everything in your power to make sure that you and those who rely on you are part on the second group. In a crisis, having multiple options and the willingness to use those options is priceless."    Much more in description.

Time Traders ...154 P
"This was the first Sci Fi book I read 35 odd years ago. And it launched me into reading all her other stories and the other great Sci Fi authors too. It is fun to reread this book now for it takes place late in the 20th century. The Cold War fears of that time (remember it was written in the 50's) are all thru the book and very familiar to one who grew up then. This book and the following three are still very good reads.

Gotham City 14 Miles: 14 Essays on Why the 1960s Batman TV Series Matters..296 P
"Gotham City 14 Miles offers the 1960s Batman TV series the critical reevaluation it deserves. Its essays examine Batmania, camp, the role of women, the show’s participation in ’60s counter-culture, its many celebrated actors, its lasting cultural effects, and other critical subjects.
 From 1966-1968, on both ABC and in movie theatres, America embraced Batman as a campy cultural icon. The nation thrilled to deathtrap cliffhangers and phrases like “Atomic batteries to power!” and “Same bat-time, same bat-channel!” But in the ensuing decades, many vilified the show as an embarrassment that needed to be swept under the rug if Batman — and super-heroes — were to be taken seriously. Having won this battle for legitimacy, perhaps we can now return to Adam West’s Gotham, to the unapologetic fun of colorful, cackling villains hatching bizarre schemes, and deadpan heroes ridiculously climbing walls. And perhaps we may find it not only fun but rich with deeper cultural meanings."

Soldier-On: The Mercurey Goodman Experience ...98 Pages
"Destined to be a real-life cult classic, Soldier-On: The Mercurey Goodman Experience, is an unconventional, embarrassingly honest, often hilarious, bordering-on-tragic memoir of an Iraq War veteran and military misfit who rose to the rank of sergeant during 10 years of service to his nation."

A Tale of Two Cities...238 P
"Novel by Charles Dickens, published both serially and in book form in 1859. The story is set in the late 18th century against the background of the French Revolution. Although Dickens borrowed from Thomas Carlyle's history, The French Revolution, for his sprawling tale of London and revolutionary Paris, the novel offers more drama than accuracy. The scenes of large-scale mob violence are especially vivid, if superficial in historical understanding. The complex plot involves Sydney Carton's sacrifice of his own life on behalf of his friends Charles Darnay and Lucie Manette. While political events drive the story, Dickens takes a decidedly antipolitical tone, lambasting both aristocratic tyranny and revolutionary excess--the latter memorably caricatured in Madame Defarge, who knits beside the guillotine. The book is perhaps best known for its opening lines, "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times," and for Carton's last speech, in which he says of his replacing Darnay in a prison cell, "It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest that I go to, than I have ever known." -- The Merriam-Webster Encyclopedia of Literature."

J.I. Greco's TAKE THE ALL-MART is simple enjoyable fun. So strap yourself in, plant your tongue firmly in your cheek and get ready for a ride."

1632 (Ring of Fire) 553 Pages
"1632 is one of my favorite books. I first read it back in high school and it is what caused my love for time-travel stories. It is an incredible journey that answers one of the ultimate "What if's" out there. If you are looking for a great book, you should not pass this up. Grab this book if you haven't already."

It sucks that Amazon has effectively banned the sites that once had comprehensive lists of free Kindle books. Much harder to find them now.

But we are not giving up here. The worst thing you can tell an American citizen is "you can't have that". Just watch and see.

When I got my Kindle Fire last year, there was a heading for 100 free books under the Book>Store tab.  It disappeared about 6 months ago.

Wednesday Update:

Tremble the Devil ..396 P
"From the start terrorism has been framed as the work of the Devil himself, but this is a dangerous misconception: terrorism is nothing more than the continuation of ancient wars by modern means.
 We see it everyday in the news: stretching out across deafened Arab streets, uncurling in the clouds above shattered refugee camps, and clawing hungrily at the social fabric of America. As our societies and the technologies they depend on have evolved, so too have the methods of the terrorist.
 Understanding today's terrorism requires three levels of comprehension: how the history and religion of the Middle East shaped and in many ways predicated the first modern acts of terrorism, the still-evolving relationship between terrorism and asymmetric warfare, and how globalization's technological and cultural implications will determine the shape and character of the miasma of terror that now threatens to darken the face of the entire civilized world.
