SuperMegaNet – Free from Amazon Kindle Store

November 30, 2011 by Michael Gallagher

This post is really about two free books – SuperMegaNet – Volumes 1 and 2 by Jesse Gordon are free today from the Amazon Kindle store, and you can pick up your free copy of Volume 1 if you click here or type in http://amzn.to/uVaxGf into your computer’s web browser, and you can pick up Volume 2 if you click here or type in http://amzn.to/ulTkDg into your computer’s web browser.

Category: Humor

Here are the books’ descriptions from the Amazon website:

“Your friends are but a click away!” That’s the promise of SuperMegaNet, a new kind of chat program that turns ordinary computers and webcams into something extraordinary. When four unlikely friends install a beta version of the software as part of a class assignment, they discover that not only can they video chat in real-time, they can actually teleport to and from each other’s homes as easily as stepping from one room to the next. There’s a catch, though: the connection can’t be turned off. Once you add someone to your buddy list, they’re yours for life (and vice versa). Like it or not, Theo, Ernie, Eva, and Jan are about to learn the true meaning of “always on.”

Firefighter Michael McGinnis is no stranger to intense situations. Veteran of New York’s Ladder Twenty-One Company as a search and rescue man, he has seen his share of burning infernos, high-rise saves, and intense emergency situations. Despite McGinnis’ years on the job, nothing can prepare him for getting tangled in his brother’s mistakes as a drug addict and gambler, especially when a blood thirsty bookie gets involved. A romance sparks between him and fellow paramedic, Eva Crisante, catching him even more off guard. Morals are tested, lies are told, and relationships are built and then torn to ruins. The problems ahead are more challenging than any fire McGinnis has experienced. He learns that bravery is not only needed in his job with the department, but also in dire situations away from work. His tough love for his brother is tested, proving that there truly are things more dangerous than a five-alarm fire.

There are those who believe that a creature as small as a young child, but as deadly for its size as any on earth, has been depicted in the ancient art of the Mayans. There are others who say that it was spawned through genetic engineering, or eluded capture when its space ship crashed to earth.

The rumors, the sightings and the physical evidence are spreading throughout the Spanish-speaking world. A cultural phenomena only? It was, until the deputy sheriff of an east Texas town investigated the bizarre killing of a prize bull…

The Prayers of Agnes Sparrow – Free from Amazon Kindle Store

November 30, 2011 by Michael Gallagher

The Prayers of Agnes Sparrow by Jennifer Estep has been free many times over the past few years, and is free today from the Amazon Kindle store, and has received an average user rating of 3.5 out of 5 stars based on 37 customer reviews.  You can pick up your free copy if you click here or type in http://amzn.to/jip6T4into your computer’s web browser.

Category: Contemporary Fiction

Here is the book’s description from the Amazon website:

Quirk abounds in this tale of two sisters, Agnes and Griselda Sparrow. The titular Agnes forswears leaving home when she tips the scale at 600 pounds, and stays put and prays. When what seem to be miracles—healings from serious illnesses—occur, the residents of the small Pennsylvania town of Bright’s Pond naturally attribute them to Agnes. Agnes’s putative power attracts a stranger in need of an unstated miracle, and the plot thickens from there. To pull off such a quirky novel, the characters need to be vividly etched, the writing consistently clever and the plotting persuasive on its own terms. Magnin partly succeeds: she meets the clever quotient, but on the whole the book is uneven. Some of the explanations that account for characters’ decisions aren’t persuasive; some dark plot twists threaten to overwhelm the quirkiness; and the pacing of the first half of the book is slow. Still, Magnin will please those who like their faith fiction with a twist, even if not everything served at the town’s Full Moon Cafe can be swallowed.

I am Gwen Frost, and I have a Gypsy gift.  It’s called psychometry – that’s a fancy way of saying that I see images in my head and get flashes of other people’s memories off almost everything I touch, even guys. 

My gift makes me kind of nosy. Okay, okay, maybe a lot nosy–to the point of obsession sometimes. I want to know everything about everyone around me. But even I don’t want to know the secrets my friend Paige is hiding or the terrible loss that will send me to a new school – Mythos Academy, where the teachers aren’t preparing us for the SATs, but to battle Reapers of Chaos.  Now I have no friends and no idea how my gift fits in with all these warrior whiz kids.  The only thing I do know is that my life is never, ever going to be the same.  .  .

Spirit Lights – Free from Amazon Kindle Store

November 30, 2011 by Michael Gallagher

Spirit Lights by Bonnie Turner is free today from the Amazon Kindle store, and has received a perfect 5 out of 5 stars based on three customer reviews.  You can pick up your free copy if you click here or type in http://amzn.to/rJly0m into your computer’s web browser.

Category: Children / Young Adult

Here is the book’s description from the Amazon website:

Returning to the Arctic after a two-year absence, twelve-year-old Jean-Paul has overcome his old fear of the dark, but discovers that his best Inuit friend, Chinook, is terrified of “spirit lights.”

One frigid night, after searching by dogsled for a crashed plane, Jean-Paul hears tinkling sounds in the area of a brilliant aurora. Chinook and the Inuit girl Kunee say the spirits in the lights are speaking, warning of danger. But Jean-Paul *knows* auroras can’t talk!

Or can they?

Fans of Gary Paulsen, Scott O’Dell, and Jack London will enjoy reading about Inuit culture and building igloos. They will experience fear and danger when they open a sleepy polar bear’s den with Jean-Paul and his Inuit friends, and will share a lonely, hazardous dogsled ride across the tundra and through the wilderness.

Two cultures meet in this coming-of-age novel for middle-grade readers ages 9 & up. Sequel to The Haunted Igloo, Spirit Lights is a *must read* before the exciting new young-adult novel, Drum Dance.

Kindle Reset Instructions

November 29, 2011 by Michael Gallagher

I am going to set this message up to go out monthly for each of my blogs: if you’ve seen it before and know what I’m talking about, or if you’re just plain ‘ole tired of seeing it don’t worry – I’ll be back with a new post soon.

Don’t have a Kindle? Well, you should get one! They range in price from $79 – $379 depending upon the number of bells and whistles you get. You can click here to give the kind of Kindle I use a look.

There seems to be a Kindle problem for a lot of folks – that is, what do you need to do if (a) this or any other blog or newspaper all of a sudden stops updating each day on the Kindle, and (b) you can see the blog or newspaper post in the to be downloaded list of the “Manage Your Kindle” section of the Amazon website and for some unexplained reason it doesn’t show up on your Kindle..

You will need to write this down, or try to memorize it, because if it happens to you I’m willing to bet you won’t remember unless you’ve reset your Kindle a few times!

If you would like to print this out, click here to read my post on the Free Kindle Books Plus a Few Other Tips blog to how to capture screen shots on your Kindle.

If this happens to you, you will need to reboot your Kindle. Here is how you do it:

  1. Click the “Home” button to get back to your home screen.
  2. Click the “Menu” button, and select “Settings.”
  3. You will see several options, but “reboot” is not one of those options. Press the “Menu” button again.
  4. You will have several options, but choose and click the “Restart” button.

Once you do that, it will take about 1-2 minutes to reboot. Make sure your wireless is on, and the Kindle will go look in the Amazon store to see what is pending to be downloaded and viola! You should be back in business. If you ever need to restart your Kindle, I hope this helps!
