mother duck said Quack, quack quack quack.. You all know how this story ends. Tragic, wot? Anyway, saw Troy, twas good. *wibbles* Hector!! *cries* It makes me sad. Full. Sadful.
No problem. That site has a very good number of books whose copyright has expired. Try, for instance, Charles Dickens' Little Dorrit, or Jane Austen's Persuasion.
*realises that commenting at the end of a thread may be slightly inethical..* Heheh. For some reason, I find the idea of copyright expiration hugely amusing. The year copyright expires on a piece of [decent] literature comes around, and people fall on it like a pack of rabid dogs... muahahahah....

I do live in the UK, so you will want to change the download site. Enjoy.
