Act fast to pick up some free ebooks!

A Pius Man: A Holy Thriller by Declan Finn http://www.amazon.com/Pius-Man-Thriller-Trilogy-Volume/dp/1482553899    is free all FRIDAYS in MAY 2013. 

Description from Amazon.com: As the head of Vatican security, Giovanni Figlia must protect a new, African Pope who courts controversy every other day. The Pope's latest project is to make Pius XII, "Hitler's Pope," a saint. Things haven't gotten better since the Pope employed American mercenary Sean Ryan. Then a body fell onto the Vatican doorstep. Soon, a pattern emerges-- people who go into the Pius XII historical archives are dying. Each time, a priest has been in the background-- a priest close to the Pope. One of the victims was an al-Qaeda operative, drawing Scott "Mossad" Murphy of Israeli intelligence to Rome. Soon, Ryan, Murphy and Figlia must join forces to unravel the mystery around the Vatican, as even the man Giovanni is supposed to protect looks like a suspect. To get out of this alive, they must discover if Hitler's Pope was a Nazi collaborator, or a pious man.

The Autobiography of Billy the Kid by Ralph Estes http://www.amazon.com/The-Autobiography-Billy-Kid-ebook/dp/B009L7ZHOW    is free May 3rd through May 5th.

Description from Amazon.com: Everyone knows the saga of Billy the Kid. That story's been told, in an avalanche of books, songs, movies, TV programs. And yet - no one has given Billy's side. Until The Autobiography of Billy the Kid. Oh, there have been many claims that it wasn't Billy whom Pat Garrett shot in Pete Maxwell's darkened bedroom on July 14, 1881. But in fact it was. Billy just didn't die then. With the help of loyal friends he played dead, was "buried" long enough for Garrett to leave, nursed back to health, made his way to Wichita, and under the name of Henry Carter became a leading rancher until cancer laid him low. And now: Billy tells his own story. What were his feelings and fears, his pleasures and regrets? What really happened, not the media and the movies' and Garrett's exaggerations. Just as Billy, as he lay dying in a care center, told it to a young Ralph Estes in 1951.  This book also has some fine reviews, including one from a past president of Western Writers of America.

I have downloaded these books myself and they have prominent places on my to-be-read list. They will likely be reviewed on this blog. But for the sake of other folks who like free Kindle books, I thought I'd get the word out.
