$15 Gets You 26 Classic Sci Fi and Fantasy Books and Audiobooks

Humble Bundle is selling a mix of 26 ebooks and audiobooks for $15.

Humble values the bundle at $318.  I recommend the bundle because the books range from elementary (My Teach Fried My Brains) to adult (Robert Asimov’s Robot Visions).
Click here to purchase the Humble SciFi Fantasy bundle.
With summer approaching fast, this could be a great way to keep kids interested in reading.  Also audio books are FANTASTIC for travel. My family listens to audio books whenever we travel. For example, the Artemis Fowl audiobook is 5+ hours long.  And that is just book one of a seven book series. Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone  is 8+ hours and A Wrinkle in Time is 6+ hours.
You can listen to a sample of Artemis Fowl, Harry Potter or Wrinkle in Time on Amazon.com.  Just click on the link above and then press Audible Sample under the book image.
 Amazon is giving away 2 FREE audiobooks with a 30 day free trial of Audible.com.
Free Audiobooks for Teens (And Adults Too!)

Get free audiobooks!  Download this week’s selections before 5/3 at 4 am. SYNC is a free summer audiobook program for teens 13+.   Each week SYNC will give away two complete audiobook downloads  – pairs of high interest titles, based on weekly themes. SYNC introduces a variety of audiobook experiences to teens to demonstrate that reading can be completed by listening.  Click here to visit SYNC and download these free audiobooks.
