Is this ongoing? Does it belong in the forums rather than as a deal?

Looks like a 3rd party (ie unaffiliated) eBook reader app that's using Project Gutenberg content, which to my knowledge is and was always free.

I'm not sure what you mean by the US $14.99 amount in the title - is that what the app used to cost? If so, it sounds dodgy to me - unless I'm missing something, the only work they've done is to build a reader app that links to freely available content. Not a lot of eBook reader apps charge $14.99 just for the reader.

Have I got something wrong here?

  it says on their page
  
  Note: We do not have any affiliation with Project
  
  and It was the cost of the app as it says there.also, may be that is why it is free now?

Seems it used to be $9.99 US and has dropped according to app shopper

  The prices on app shopper are mostly different than what is on iTunes, I found this price from Google cache.

  But it only went up to 9.99 from .99 on 14/11
  
  The price drop from 9.99 is meant to bring them more traffic, which has worked.
