This week there’s another podiobook and another site that hosts a collection of free book downloads. Also, corporations are now starting to sponsor book downloads, which is an interesting development.

You can download a podiobook of The Immortals by Tracy Hickman, which looks like a fascinating book. From the Podiobooks.com synopsis:
It’s 2020, and an attempted cure for AIDS has mutated into a deadlier disease, V-CIDS. The U.S., under martial law, has set up “quarantine centers” in the Southwest. Searching for his gay son, Jon, media mogul Michael Barris smuggles himself into one of centers only to discover that it and the other centers are actually extermination camps. With a strange assortment of allies, including the leader of the camp’s gay barracks, an army officer and a local cowboy, Barris precipitates an inmates’ rebellion that promises the unraveling of the death-camp system and the overthrow of the government that established it.

If that’s not your thing, you can always check out Wowio, which is back after a long hiatus and has a whole library of books, comics, and graphic novels. I haven’t had a chance to try it myself. I’m under the impression that Wowio is now open to non-US residents (it wasn’t before). If that is not the case, please let me know.
If you, or someone you know, is heading off to college/university this fall, you can download College Knowledge: 101 Tips by David Schoem for free until September 30th. This download is sponsored by GalleryCollection.com.
