Harper Collins is letting folks read American Gods by Neil Gaiman gratis, with Neal's blessing natch. Neal let his blog readers pick the book. The results?
68,000 unique visitors, 3,000,000 pages viewed, and an increase in sales of 300%. How cool is that? If all my readers went and did likewise that would make 68,003. MAKE IT HAPPEN!!!

I have it---I own it; if Neil Gaiman's involved, I'm in, although I didn't like the ovie "Stardust". Maybe the book was better, but I was put off, and I hated to see Claire Danes wasted like that
I really enjoyed the movie. I haven't read much of Gaiman's stuff outside of this and the Sandman graphic novels. I love the fact that the notion of giving away your stuff and people paying for it is catching on.
I love the (apparent) trend of authors allowing some of their books to be distributed free online. Baen publishing has been doing it for years with (as far as they are concerned) great success as a marketing tool.

Currently about 100 books, all scifi or fantasy.
I'd heard that about Baen. Thanks for the link!
