Kindle Nation Daily Free Book Alert, Saturday, July 10: Two New Suspense Pre-Orders from Bestselling HarperCollins Authors, Plus Garden Magic In Your Backyard! (Today’s Sponsor) and Over a Hundred Free Promotional Kindle Store Titles

It’s great to see how masterfully Soho Crime, Michael Genelin’s indie publisher, has parlayed The Magician’s Accomplice’s two days as a Kindle Store freebie into bestseller status as a Kindle paid book. It appears that well over 500 Kindle Nation citizens picked up this great read free before the price was reset at $9.99 yesterday, but with the book still at #2 in the Kindle Store paid listings, it is clear that it is still finding hundreds of buyers at the new price. For quality books, that’s how freebies ought to work, and of course they ought to be available to every author and publisher.

And I’m glad to see that our Kindle Nation Daily Free Book Alerts continue to be sprinkled with interesting suspense listings, with two crime and suspense pre-orders from bestselling HarperCollins authors today….

But first, a word from … Today’s Sponsor

 
If you’re a backyard gardener, you’ll want to find out why reader Denise A. Klein wrote in her 5-star Kindle review of David Soper’s Garden Magic In Your Backyard! that “I particularly enjoy having my Kindle read this book aloud while I work in the garden!”
 
Another reader said “Reading David Soper is like having a good friend by your side in the garden. He keeps you entertained, chats comfortably and cracks a few jokes between the chores of digging to the right depth and feeding your plants a proper diet. His suggestions are gentle and good-natured (“Plant bulbs abundantly; you want displays, not samples”). His descriptions are vivid and accurate (“The bulb should feel like a good clove of garlic”). And he spins some fascinating history for you to read while waiting for your seedlings to grow. I’d be tempted to while away hours with his prose even if my garden consisted of no more than a window box in a sunless apartment.”

Here are our updated free promotional listings in the Kindle Store as of July 10:

Harper Collins Pre-Order for July 30, 2010 – Suspense
From Booklist: The author of the 1990s Simeon Grist series returns with a compelling new protagonist: American travel writer Poke Rafferty, who is out to right some serious wrongs on the predatory streets of Bangkok. While attempting to adopt a homeless girl, rescue a potentially murderous urchin known as Superman, and build a lasting relationship with the former bar girl he loves, Poke is pulled into two brutal mysteries. One involves a notorious Khmer Rouge torturer, the other a series of child-porn photos. As he doggedly plumbs these ghastly depths, Rafferty matures from a play-it-as-it-lays layabout into a man willing to meet his lover’s culture more than halfway and find his moral compass at a time when the victims can be as guilty as the murderers are innocent. The fact that the referenced pedophile photo series and Phnom Penh torture house both existed heightens the impact of a narrative that’s already deeply felt. If this opens a new series, Hallinan is off to a surefooted start with a supporting cast (including Poke’s precocious, pugnacious, almost-daughter Miaow) well worth getting to know.
Harper Collins Pre-Order for August 24, 2010 – Suspense
A hodgepodge hardcover debut in which two Native American medicine men, an Arizona lawman, a young widow and her son, and a Papago basket-weaver/wise woman are inexorably drawn into confrontation with the evil ohb, a university professor-turned- serial-killer, who upended their lives six years before when he tortured and murdered the basket-weaver’s granddaughter and then stage-managed a suicide/frame-up for his distraught accomplice Garrison Ladd. Now he’s stalking Ladd’s widow Diana and son Davy, but his old MO (biting off nipples) used on a new victim has set the sheriff’s department on his trail, while his malevolent spirit has energized the Papagos. There will be another murder, an attempted murder, dreams, emanations, and a near-fatal dog- poisoning before everyone converges on the Ladd house for a gruesome resolution. Disconcerting time shifts and a plethora of Papago parables (can anyone outdo Tony Hillerman?) fail to disguise the fact that this is nothing more than potboiler melodrama, with the hapless reader bombarded first by the lurid, then by the mystical. — Copyright ©1991, Kirkus Associates, LP.
