Started with 5 books and ended up with 67. If you find any more free to claim ebooks from Amazon or elsewhere, please link them below so other users can check them out. Or if you have enough post them as a deal and link the post here.

There are quite a lot of AmazonClassics Editions, I tried to limit to the bigger ones. Amazon makes these fairly hard to find but there are many more in addition to these.

Another thing to note, most of these give you a -90% discount on the Audible audiobook. Many are just A$2.99.

      Project Gutenberg has been around since before Amazon existed. It contains electronic copies of old and out-of-copyright books.

      It is a fantastic resource. They not have audiobooks too!

        Why is not having audiobooks such a good thing?

          Daniel coauthored a 2010 study that found students who listened to a podcast lesson performed worse on a comprehension quiz than students who read the same lesson on paper. “And the podcast group did a lot worse, not a little worse,” he says. Compared to the readers, the listeners scored an average of 28% lower on the quiz—about the difference between an A or a D grade, he says.

      Standard eBooks takes many of the titles from Project Gutenberg and proof reads, reformats and adds decent covers. I'll wager they're better than the Amazon editions.

          Do you mean fun with Dick and Jane (2005)?

          Its classified as a comedy, you are a joke. :)

    Correct me if I'm wrong, I think all the "Amazon Classic" titles are free. Just downloaded a few titles (The Arabian Nights, The Lost World, Treasure Island) on my Kindle app.

    Absolute classics. Been hunting for The Arabian Nights for free for ages!!

  • Solrak on 20/01/2022 - 00:32

    Not really my taste but free is free!! https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/B004YKZIGI/ref=sspa_dk_detail_0…

    Scottish warlocks & love potions…….bizarre, but again she's a freebie! https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/B012HL2SOU/ref=sspa_dk_detail_1…

      I think it goes down shortly and then comes back up, possibly a bot protection.

        No, it's only for Prime subscribers. Otherwise, it's like $3.

        I actually have huge issues with Amazon doing this. Almost all the books are IP-free (as in entered public domain). They really shouldn't be forcing users onto their platform, or locking them out after 10 copies etc. They're free, publically available books that Amazon has 'taken' for their website surrounding them in ads and software to access.

        As Kogi said - https://www.gutenberg.org/

        • Jimbuscus on 20/01/2022 - 15:59

          The screenshot I put up top is while logged out, when it runs out it's only with Prime Reading, but it's claimable free without Prime until it runs out.

    When I click the links it doesn't give a price, but says "Kindle titles are available for US customers on Amazon.com."

    When i go to the US Amazon the prices show as $2.99. No idea what's the go.

    Thank you to the OP and the other contributors. Some many great stories here that stand the test of time - just as enjoyable today to read. Plus many of the associated Audible audio books were greatly discounted. Grabbed several at $1.99 and one at $1.20.

    Damn, too late to the party, some of them I really like not free anymore.

    thanks a lot OP! :) also seems that all of these are free to read if you have a prime membership but you can only "borrow" 10 at a time.
