Free Pirates!
It’s been in the works for sometime now, but today is the day we have finally been able to make the book available for free online. Both my English language publishers (Simon & Schuster in the U.S. and Penguin in the U.K.) agreed we should release the book free online after the UK launch was out of the way, and that time is now.

I already bought a hard copy, so I don’t feel super guilty about getting this digital copy for free. But I figured an extra digital copy would be handy.
The books awesome and everyone should pay at least 5 bucks.

Love the book, love the ideas, love the way you’re marketing it. I hope it wasn’t too aggravating convincing your publisher that free was the way to go. Well done! I’m a new fan!

Well, I’ll have to eat my hat I guess. I’m still incredibly disappointed that your book was not released under some form of copy-left license, or plain public domain but this is at least a step further in line with the ideologue you espouse than I thought you would be.
Doesn’t mean I like the book anymore though.
