Free Kindle Books

There are over 300,000 books to choose from - and you can download a book in less than 60 seconds using the Kindle's wireless connection.

One big bonus that many people don't know about is the large number of free Kindle books available right from Amazon's webstore. All you have to do is go to the Kindle bookstore and do a search for any type of book. In the field at the top right hand corner select "Price: low to high" and you should see plenty of books available for free.

You will probably be pleasantly surprised at some of the free titles available to you. A lot of the classics are there - they are now freely available because it has been a number of years since they were published - and some more modern books are also on offer. It's well worth checking what's on offer, the price is right after all.

Here's a sample of some of the books you can get for free:

 

Those are all timeless classics of course - but if you prefer something more modern then how about these examples:

 

It's probably worth noting that, whilst the "classic" books remain fairly static, the more modern books available for free do vary. This page is updated every week - so it's worth checking back from time to time as the freebies do vary. If any of the modern books aren't free at the time you view this page I do apologise - Amazon are hard to keep up with at times (just ask Sony).

Apart from these examples, there are plenty titles available for $0.01. That's not free - but it's pretty close. All things considered, you could pretty quickly offset the cost of your Kindle when you consider the savings available on your regular book purchases.

Update 21/12/09

It seems to be getting harder to find free Kindle books at Amazon.  They are still there but the sorting "Price: Low to high" doesn't seem to be working as well as it used to. The list seems to contain huge amounts of Kindle books at $2.30, which is still pretty cheap to be fair, with the $0.00 books tucked in amongst them. So, the free books are there, but you have to look a bit harder for them than previously.

Anyway, just so that you don't have to go trawling through the list just click on the link to check out a few more free Kindle books for you.
