There has been some problems reported with downloading the free eBooks today. iBooks and Google books currently has everything correct.
Amazon, Barnes & Noble and Sony are currently working to get their prices adjusted. They should be correct shortly. Sourcebooks.com will also have our books and the illustrated versions available for free!
Because of this confusion the celebration will be extended an extra day! This offer will be good tomorrow as well.
