A friend in the indie publishing world has put together a bundle of cozy fantasy ebooks that you can get for free if you contact your elected representatives to encourage them to support keeping/passing legislation that improves life for disabled people.
  • Contact your representatives on behalf of disability rights anywhere between now and March 31.
  • Send a screenshot or forward a copy to CozyBookBundle@gmail.com.
  • When the books become available in March, we’ll reply with your download link!
Although prompted by events in the US, this a worldwide offer, open to anyone who contacts the elected officials in their country who influence disability rights legislation and policy.

Usual disclaimer -- be aware that you need to sign up for author's newsletter, but can unsubscribe later.

Romances, over 1,000, Sept 20 - 23. (Edit. [personal profile] sholio tells me that this bunch of romances has no need to subscribe to a newsletter.)

Mysteries, about 50, till Sept 30.

Science Fiction / Fantasy. Lost this in my inbox, and I don't know when it ends. It says "Limited Time" but the page still comes up, so maybe it's good for a while longer?

 

For those of who are familiar with the works of Sylvia Engdahl (Enchantress from the Stars is the one I remember), they have made three books of essays free (info). I've just downloaded them via Apple.

Engdahl also says

Unfortunately, you will not find print copies of my adult novels, or in-print editions of my YA novels, in libraries, as they do not buy indie editions -- but they can get FREE copies of all my ebooks (except Enchantress from the Stars and nonfiction published by Greenhaven) from Overdrive and several other library ebook systems. Please let your librarian know.

List of books

 
I should have done this earlier, but I've been immersed in helping my niece move her household 200 miles away -- on the road each weekend with a loaded pickup truck pulling a loaded U-Haul trailer, then recovering Tues & Wed ('weekend' extends through Mon) and preparing Thurs & Fri go again. But I need to tell you this before something like Aug 29th!

So you still have almost 3 weeks to to check out these Free Cozy Mysteries. Be aware that you have to sign up for that author's newsletter to get the free book(s) you want -- but if you're not interested, it's easy enough to unsubscribe when their first newsletter hits your inbox. OTOH, following a few newsletters is how I find out about deals like this.

Anyway, happy reading.
 

Thanks to [personal profile] swingandswirl who mentioned it elsewhere:

To celebrate its fifteenth anniversary, Tor.com is giving away a best of collection of its short stories from the past fifteen years. There are some pretty cool names on this list, too - N.K. Jemisin, Yoon Ha Lee, Charlie Jane Anders and others. The book is available until 31 July. Go get it here, in epub, mobi, or PDF.

Kith publishing are doing a promotion for the Trans Rights Readathon, making all of their ebooks free 'until the end of the week' (I am unsure whether that means 'finishes tomorrow' or a longer period) -- this is to make the books by their trans authors available without outing anyone.

There aren't a lot of works there, and they look like short works and/or poetry, of the ones I've glanced at.

The first book in K.J. Charles' Will Darling Adventures trilogy is available for free for a limited time on multiple platforms.

Book summary:
Will Darling came back from the Great War with a few scars, a lot of medals, and no idea what to do next. Inheriting his uncle’s chaotic second-hand bookshop is a blessing...until strange visitors start making threats. First a criminal gang, then the War Office, both telling Will to give them the information they want, or else.

Will has no idea what that information is, and nobody to turn to, until Kim Secretan—charming, cultured, oddly attractive—steps in to offer help. As Kim and Will try to find answers and outrun trouble, mutual desire grows along with the danger.

And then Will discovers the truth about Kim. His identity, his past, his real intentions. Enraged and betrayed, Will never wants to see him again.

But Will possesses knowledge that could cost thousands of lives. Enemies are closing in on him from all sides—and Kim is the only man who can help.

A 1920s m/m romance trilogy in the spirit of Golden Age pulp fiction.


I read this book a few years ago and enjoyed it, even though I normally don't like spy stories.
Nghi Vo's The Empress of Salt and Fortune is Tor.com's free ebook of the month. If you live in Canada or the US and sign up for their newsletter, you can download the book in DRM-free epub or mobi until October 7th, 2022.
Seanan McGuire's Middlegame is Tor.com's free ebook of the month. If you live in Canada or the US and sign up for their newsletter, you can download the book in DRM-free epub or mobi until March 25th, 2022.
Tor is giving away 3 free ebooks this week (Feb. 14-19)!

The books are:
C.L. Polk's Witchmark, a fantasy(/mystery) with m/m romance. Summary: "When a fatally poisoned patient exposes Miles’ healing gift and his witchmark, he must put his anonymity and freedom at risk to investigate his patient’s murder. To find the truth he’ll need to rely on the family he despises, and on the kindness of the most gorgeous man he’s ever seen."

Emily Tesh's Silver in the Wood, a historical faerie tale m/m romance. Summary: "There is a Wild Man who lives in the deep quiet of Greenhollow, and he listens to the wood. When Greenhollow Hall acquires a handsome and intensely curious new owner in Henry Silver, everything changes."

Martha Well's All Systems Red, a sci-fi story with an agender robot protagonist. Summary: "As a heartless killing machine, Murderbot has been a complete failure. Addicted to soap operas and scornful of humans, all it really wants is to be left alone long enough to figure out who it is. Emotional connections are...inconvenient."

I've read all these books and enjoyed them, and I definitely recommend grabbing them while they're available.
 

Found this in my email, figured I'd pass it along. I slept late, so there's not much "today" left for UK and European folks; my apologies.

Feel free to spread this info through other venues if you wish.
