Fruit Ninja Puss in Boot: Today's Free App, Plus Book of the Day: The Detachment

Now that we're on the other side of the holidays, we're seeing a whole new wave of Kindle Fires being sent to people around the country. First there were the early-adopters, then the holiday shoppers, and now people who didn't get one for the holidays are getting the device for themselves with gift cards. It's clear that nobody wants to be left out of the fun, and even people with iPads are finding that the Fire still serves a very special niche in their entertainment needs.

We'll be talking more about this in articles in the days ahead, as well as getting into our year-end wrap-up with the 1st Annual Kindle App Awards!

But now...check out today's free app and our discounted book of the day!

Description:  John Rain is back. And “the most charismatic assassin since James Bond” (San Francisco Chronicle) is up against his most formidable enemy yet: the nexus of political, military, media, and corporate factions known only as the Oligarchy. 

When legendary black ops veteran Colonel Scott “Hort” Horton tracks Rain down in Tokyo, Rain can’t resist the offer: a multi-million dollar payday for the “natural causes” demise of three ultra-high-profile targets who are dangerously close to launching a coup in America. 

But the opposition on this job is going to be too much for even Rain to pull it off alone. He’ll need a detachment of other deniable irregulars: his partner, the former Marine sniper, Dox. Ben Treven, a covert operator with ambivalent motives and conflicted loyalties. And Larison, a man with a hair trigger and a secret he’ll kill to protect. Get your copy of The Detachment!
