As a reader I love freebies, and as a writer I love giving my readers freebies! Check out some of the awesome bonus content you can find from the Amaranthine Universe.
Note: Unlike other retailers, Amazon gets the final say in all prices, meaning a story or book *meant* to be free is NOT free, even though the author intended it to be. Also books that were free may become un-free without notice. Always check the price before buying. Readers can download kindle compatible files from Smashwords - where they allow the author to set their price - and manually put them on their kindles.
