Book Cover You want free Kindle book? You can has free Kindle book.

Harlequin is giving away Deanna Raybourn’s Silent in the Sanctuary for Kindle users - quite the enticement since the third volume of the series, Silent on the Moor comes out on 1 March 2009.

But wait, there’s more! The Kindle edition for both Silent in the Santuary and the sequel are enriched editions - extra content! Silent in the Sanctuaryhas photos of the Harlequin Second Life ball last year, a plum pudding recipe, a history of Belmont Abbey and the teaser for Silent on the Moor. Silent on the Moor is enriched with a cast of characters, a letter from Lady Julia Grey and a journal excerpt by Deanna Raybourn.

So smart. How many people have gone out to buy - or waited for - a DVD release with more extra features, particularly in effects-heavy films like the Lord of the Rings trilogy or any of the Pixar movies? Extra features are a key component to digital packaging, and it’s way damn smart to start including that in Harlequin e-books. Free ebook of a series + extra features + new sequel in a matter of days? WIN. WIN. WINNNN.

    Harlequin isn’t doing it for Sony? :(

    And the first book in the series, Silent in the Grave, is on sale for $5.04, so it’s easy to get caught up on the whole series.

    Sweet!  I just got my Kindle today.  There’s no turning down a free book for me.  Thanks for the tip!

    All formats of Silent in the Sanctuary and Silent on the Moor have the extra content—unfortunately only Kindle is free :)

    Only for Kindle =/= win.

    Thanks for the tip - I’ve had Silent in the Grave on my wishlist for a while, so I just picked up Silent in the Sanctuary for free, and will get Grave when my budget recovers from buying the Kindle. :)

    Yay for the Kindle and yay for HQ!

    My Kindle2 should be delivered tomorrow, but I’ve already set up the download.

    It is at times like these that I wish I had a Kindle. I love the Sanctuary books.
