Deal Details
I saw this banner when browsing the Kindle page on amazon. I am not really sure what they are but they are free and there are 500 of them! If you buy them outright [amazon.com], it would be $4.

Enjoy!

If you do not see the big banner, I did see there was a "free tokens" link in the top right corner of my screen also. Otherwise, there should be a giant banner on the link to claim the tokens.

Introducing Kindle Vella
Kindle Vella brings you stories released one short episode at a time, available on the web at www.amazon.com/kindle-vella and in the Kindle app.
Things to look out for if you're new here:
Follow the stories you like to keep up with the latest from your favorite characters.
When you like an episode, give it a Thumbs Up to let the author and other readers know you liked it.
The first few episodes of every story are always free--after that, purchase Tokens and redeem them to unlock episodes. Tokens may only be used to unlock Kindle Vella story episodes in the Kindle app and on the web at www.amazon.com/kindle-vella.
When you unlock episodes, you will receive one Fave a week that you can award to the story you're enjoying most that week. We'll feature Top Faved stories so other readers can find them too.

Is this a book selling model to keep you buying a book indefinitely, one chapter at a time? Do these stories ever end? Seems like there would be no incentive to end a story if you get people hooked on the subscription model. Could get tedious once the author runs out of ideas.

And that's why they were called penny dreadfuls. Some of them were completely awful.

Just incentivizes authors to write short chapters. Amazon is trying to follow the business model for Galatea app. Charge per chapter or subscription model. Horrible model. Horrible writing. Don't fall into this scam of giving more money to amazon so that they can take advantage of writers and readers. There is an abundance of horrible writing, don't pay for it.

The Galatea app selling point... "Millions of women are in love with our library of adult romance novels full of passion, lure, & love fantasy." laugh out loud

I got 500, maybe because I am Prime + Music Unlimited subscriber?
