| The Best Four eBook Reading Apps for your iPhones Posted: 29 Oct 2011 09:19 AM PDT
Some of the free must haves apps for your iPhone…If you want to punish your eyes, read an eBook on any smartphone with less than a 4-inch display. The iPhone has 3.5 and unless you have eagle eyes, it can be a real strain to finish even a chapter of Tolkien's Lord of the Rings in one. Luckily there are excellent eBook reading apps in the market that more than make up for such smallish screens. Some of the best iPhone eBook apps are downloadable free of charge from their respective online stores. Here are a few apps to consider.
iBooks from AppleCompatible with iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad. Requires iOS 3.2 or later
In general, you can't go wrong with a native eBook reader designed specifically for the device. Originally designed as Apple’s first e-Book reading apps for its highly successful iPad tablet, the iBooks got tweaked for the iPhone and can be downloaded for free from its App Store. Quite polished for a first time iteration to say the least, it comes with an excellent typography that is highly readable and pixel free when used with the iPhone's superb retina display. It has the ability to annotate the page with a neat page-turning animation. The app supports EPUB and PDF file formats so you can read downloaded PDF files in your iPhone. Purchasing eBooks from the App Store is a breeze since you can download your purchases directly into the reader. The reader comes with a free eBook Winnie the Pool and has an in-application portal that accesses the thousands of eBook titles in its online bookstore. Just don't expect it to be as rich a library as what you can find in Amazon's Kindle store. Wattpad eBook ReaderCompatible with iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad. Requires iOS 3.0 or later.
With its iPhone version released in 2009 and now enjoying more than a million free downloads per month, the Wattpad has become one of the most popular eBook readers. It is supported by its own library touted as the “YouTube” of eBooks where both amateur and professional writers can share content by uploading their published and unpublished works for readers to download, and there are tons of fiction short stories, fantasies, science fiction, romance, etc., that you won't find in Kindle or Nook sites. It is essentially the Freda eBook reader initially designed for Windows Mobile phones whose current version 2.1.2 for the iPhone improves the stability. Supporting DRM-free EPUB, HTML and TXT formats, the reader allows you to bookmark and annotate pages and remembers your most recently read eBooks. It has an in-app browser that allows you order and download apps with links to the Caibre, DropBox, Feedbooks, Smashwords and the Gutenberg library, on top of the Wattpad site. Amazon Kindle iPhone AppCompatible with iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad. Requires iOS 3.0 or later.
The Amazon Kindle reader for iPhones has competitive features like adjusting font sizes though you're limited to just five font types with a choice of black text on white, reversed and in sepia look which many consider kindest to your eyes. You can bookmark pages with the ability to open the title at the last page you left of. Its most outstanding feature really comes from having access to the Amazon's library. You just need to open a free Amazon account which is easy to set up. After that, you get one of the lowest eBook prices and simply the widest selection of about 400,000 titles apart from the millions of free titles in the public domain. Just one caveat though, the purchasing process can still be improved since you need to toggle between reader and the iPhone's web browser to download new eBooks. If Amazon can add an in-app purchasing feature, its iPhone reader can be considered the best. The Kobo eBook readerCompatible with iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad. Requires iOS 4.0 or later.
An anagram of the word “book”, the Kobo first released in 2010 was initially meant to compete with the Kindle but its free Kobo e-reader application had gained a significant following for use in the PC, Mac, Android and the iPhone. Its appeal lies in its ability to share excerpts and pages from your eBooks to your friends in Facebook and Twitter while getting recommendations from them as well. Supporting the EPUB and PDF format, you can read eBook content published in website, blogs and other online content from your Instapaper account where you get daily newspaper delivered to your Kobo library. Its other standout features include annotations and a look-up facility for unfamiliar words with a choice of its own dictionary, the Wikipedia or Google using a one touch press. Text font and sizes can be customized to what is easy for your eyes and you get a page curl when turning pages just like the real thing. Last WordsAny of these e-readers makes for a competent choice and if you're content on reading eBooks on the iPhone, you're lucky. Just don't do it on the iPad or the Kindle. Because once you do, you won't ever want to go back reading eBooks on the iPhone.

But before she can begin her training as a Dragoon Knight, she has a slight problem to deal with… Thomas Delauncey knows better than mix it up in other people’s affairs. That’s always trouble. But a young girl is dying, a young girl with a dangerous gift. A young girl he has sworn to save. To do so, he must seek an ancient talisman, and he needs help to recover it. So he kidnaps a young woman. A young woman who claims she was on her way to be a knight, and who actually expects him to believe she fought in the war against the chemmen. A young woman he soon wishes he had never set eyes on. Meanwhile, even as they hunt for their friend, Kelin, Jakkobb and Thistle find themselves caught by the rising tides of a war between two rival kingdoms. But is this war really about a river changing course on the boundary? Or is something more sinister at work? Now, in the second volume of the All Things Impossible Series, Der and Tom must find a way to tame a powerful talisman, prevent a war, and save a girl’s life. More importantly, they must find a way to do it without killing each other in the process…

Magic Rings by Professor Solomon Professor Solomon takes a look at some magic rings. Included are the ring of King Solomon; that of Reynard the Fox (a dubious character); and the radio-show rings of the 1940s (such as the Lone Ranger Weather Ring and the Buck Rogers Ring of Saturn). And he notes that magic rings are still with us.

Whispers of a Legend, Part One- Shadows of the Past by Carrie James Haynes The legend, they say, is whispered within the winds along the magnificent Preda Mountain Range, the words and deeds never to be forgotten of the Time of the Nuxvenom, a time when the Sordarins crushed the impending threat, the dreaded Asmeodai, and once more Scarladin was safe. The mighty Sordarins, rulers of the sky! No, the Sordarins have slept well over the years secure in their knowledge the Great One watches over them, knowing the legends holds a mighty warrior will emerge if threatened again, born with a destiny only to defend their world. But subtle changes have emerged. Little by little fear beings to resurface that their world, their very existence is once again threaten. They look to the skies anxiously awaiting their warrior; questioning perchance if the Great One has forgotten them. I know this how? For I am the one born to defend their world. I, Kela Calledwdele, was born a Euchoun. I am their warrior. So starts this epic fantasy…Whispers of a Legend saga. Kela Calledwdele was born with a destiny, a Euchoun with only one purpose in life…to protect. Torn between two worlds, Kela soon discovers she is the hope of both. Now she must find the courage to face the destiny fate has dictated to her. Kela has always known what path in life she would follow. She was born a Euchoun. Half Witheleghean, a passive peaceful race where magic runs freely and the other half, Sordarin, a valiant warrior race of hawkmen who rule the sky, she knows well her parents gave the ultimate sacrifice to give her a chance to live. Yet, in so doing, they have left Kela unprepared to face the dangers that await her. Her instincts are to protect and in this she does, but in so doing it leads her into a world where she knows not whom to trust. In time her power matures and grows stronger when she bonds with a Sordarin warrior, Cono. She learns well why she holds the power. An evil as no other before, Asmeodai, has emerged but all is not what it seems as a dark cloak encompasses her family. Betrayal, distrust, treachery leaves Kela alone. She is torn by her desire for Cono and the purpose, the path, she has been given to follow. And when another emerges within her world, one who seemly wants only to help her along her path, she is pulled further away from her Sordarin.
