LATEST DISCOUNTED Kindle books (some temporarily) forum thread:
  Forum-thread starter RandomizeME includes a caution that it's not a book promotion thread for authors or for posts about indies or free books either.  "The thread is for discounts and price drops that readers [many, but especially Emily Bronte] find for books from publishers."

TEMPORARILY Free-Book alerts from the Amazon Kindle forums - via the amazing "Happy Reader" Joyce, who is constantly on the lookout on behalf of forum members.

  NOTE: The alerts below are quoted as they appear in Joyce's collecting of newly and mostly temporarily-free books just released and are *not* books I've seen and are *not* recommendations by this blog -- this is a daily report of very popular forum alerts.   The eBooks will become no longer free within days, usually - sometimes, hours.  Thanks to Joyce for gathering and organizing all these for us.

Sept 4 - morning, 23 books; Setp 4 - afternoon (same link), 5 more books from VOOK (total 28)
  More on the Audio/Video books and their effect/non-effect on a Kindle in another coming blog entry.   See the end of the book listing (on the 2nd page with "MORE" clicked) to see the additional 5 e-books today.

If, on this Home page listing (in orange), you see "MORE" books available,

' Happy Reader "Joyce" says:

28 FREE Offers by VOOK ...

** Please Note: 10 of today's free offers are Kindle Edition with Audio/Video.
Audio/Video content only available for iPads, iPhones, and iPod Touch devices. **

[Andrys' note1 - Happy Reader "Joyce" adds, re the Audio-Video books, boldface/italics mine:
  "I have only tried on a few occasions to download a few of the Vook Audio-Video on my iPAD, and they did work very well.  However, I have had others tell me that they have downloaded on their Kindles and get the text fine, but no Audio-Video."]

  [Andrys' note2: Books on the Knob adds that if sent to a Kindle, these books will NOT include audio/video and will not be the large sizes cited, and I'll add that those e-books were authored with the audio/video attachments as important to the enhanced ebook but -- while free -- may be attractive to download to your computer as they will come in handy when there's an Amazon tablet.]

  [Andrys' note3: So, today there are 15 offers that were authored without a need for accompanying video/audio.]
