(I'm using a template from my November post, because it explains what I'm doing.)

Sometimes Audible rewards paying members who are paying attention with not only the choice of two free audiobooks every member gets, but also a brief chance to preorder several of the same audiobooks that will be part of next month's choose-two offer. If you preorder these (for free), you'll own them when the choose-two deal goes live, and you can choose from the others without losing these.

When you order anything from this deal, make _sure_ you're not spending a credit, and not paying money, and please don't make one of these your "one free credit" when you sign up for the first time (spend that on a big book you've always wanted). This one's free _after_ you sign up.

Let's keep this up to date and see how many we get. Last month there weren't many. This time I'm starting with two.

It's over -- but good news! Instead of offering only two books, Audible set it up this time so members can order any OR ALL of the 8 free releases this month. No limit, no credits.

Possibly obsolete, is this still free: h/t TMI for reminding us that the new edition of Tales of Beedle the Bard is still available for free preorder, sourced from Slickdeals at https://slickdeals.net/f/13887041-the-tales-of-beedle-the-bard-audible-pre-order.

Other free books (not preorders) are at https://slickdeals.net/f/13931336-free-audiobooks-for-everyone

Oh, and some past Audible Originals are now being offered for free at https://slickdeals.net/f/13932464-the-half-life-of-marie-curie-proof-of-love-evil-eye-and-more-free-audiobooks-audible-non-members-as-well

Your comment cannot be blank.

Not normally one to turn up my nose at free, but both of these books look godawful terrible.
Reading the above comment I thought I was gonna say "just because you're not the target audience doesn't mean they're *bad*, they're just not "for you".

...but they're bad.
Thanks for explaining this OP!
I just joined Audible and noticed the additional free pre-order books and didn't know how it worked.
Here's another free pre-order book. Harry Potter's The Tales of Beadle the Bard,

Audible is horribly woke, it's embarrassing, unless that's what you're into. The monthly giveaways are 90% tripe.

I had to up vote all the negative comments, and I'm the post author. This month is not starting out well, not at all.

Normally they'll release more. We can hope, right?

If they show up as costing, check that you're logged in as a paying member. If you are, contact tech support... I've heard that happened to one person.

Also, watch this post for updates, in case they release something decent.

Thank you for listing this. I LOVE free, and I love Audible. Even if these books aren't my cup of tea, I really appreciate that you took the time to let us know that they were available.
