You can get it for Kindle or download a free Kindle reading app. You need to use the Amazon website for your own country.

Fed up with the seasonal commercialism and sentimentality? As an antidote we're giving away the dark, alternative Christmas novel 'Everything is Free' by Adele Ward. It's becoming a tradition to give it away at this time of year!

How to handle a Hypergrid address 

From any Hypergrid-enabled grid, paste the address into the address bar of Firestorm and press enter. Or paste it into the world map search bar of any viewer, search, and click Teleport when the destination is found. If it doesn't work, don't give up. Try again in couple of minutes.  Sometimes the first try fails (probably times out).  And try again a few hours later. Some hypergrid destinations are offline part of the day. 
If you get an address like this: 
 hg.francogrid.org:80:Residence-09:/119/128/190     
paste it into the address bar of Firestorm, see if it takes you to the exact coordinates.
