We're talking high-quality, newish E-Books from your friendly neighborhood giant behemoth of a bookseller Barnes & Noble."</em></p><p><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/at/auto/1275423737.usr105634.jpg" style="border: 1px solid #d2d2bb;" /></p><p>This promo <a href="http://bookclubs.barnesandnoble.com/t5/Unbound-NOOK-and-BN-eReader-Blog/Fun-and-Free-eBooks/bc-p/531550" target="_blank">started about two weeks ago</a>, and has three weeks left, ending approximately on June 20th. All you have to do is bring a Nook, or any eBook reader with the Barnes & Noble software installed (ie iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch, Blackberry, etc), into one of their brick and mortar stores, and you get a code for a free eBook. The books they plan to give away in no particular order are Alexander McCall Smith's "The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency," Jim Butcher's "Storm Front," Chris Anderson's "The Long Tail," Elizabeth Berg's "Home Safe," and Lee Child's "One Shot."</p>
