More and more at ManyBooks.net — Ad-free ebooks for your iPad, Kindle, or ebook reader, and they are free as well as "ad-free." A few of my discoveries:
- Robert Louis Stevenson including, of course, Treasure Island, Kidnapped, Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde, The Black Arrow, etc.
- Robert E. Howard (who wote the Conan books),
- someone has compiled a list of pirate stories and books available as e-books.
- collections of fairy tales from around the world.
- books that became movies.
- Some of John Buchan's best including The Thirty-Nine Steps, Mr Standfast, Greenmantle and Huntingtower.
- just about everything written by H.G. Wells including The War of the Worlds, The Time Machine and The Invisible Man.
- all of Jane Austen.
- all of Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes novels and stories (except most of the stories from The Casebook of Sherlock Holmes that are still under copyright).
- books by Rafael Sabatini including Captain Blood, Scaramouche and The Sea Hawk.
...and more and more. There is non-fiction, too. And it is all free. This is a wonderful time to be a reader.
