Get Free ePub Books for iPad

The iBookstore offers a lot of books and many of them are free, but you don't need it to read a book. The iPad along with iTunes can import eBooks you've downloaded from other sources, but there is one limitiation the eBooks must be in ePub or PDF format.

We provide the ePub Creator to create most of file formats to ePub for iPad, so you can read the ePub eBooks with iBooks app on iPad.

Get Free ePub Books for iPad from iBook Store

The iBooks Store does have over 30,000 free books, mostly from Project Gutenberg, and many of them with surprisingly decent formatting. There is a trick, though: you'll have to be fastidious. Searching for an author in the iBooks Store will often bring up only for-pay versions of many books, whereas entering their specific titles will brings up free versions, too. It's extremely odd, but we discovered the bug when looking for many titles, including "Siddhartha" by Hermann Hesse and Thomas Hobbes' "Leviathan."

Project Gutenberg is a good source for about 30,000 free ePub formatted books that you can download, and some of these may even be available in the iBookstore. However, we think that may be a little easier to browse through the library of free iPad eBooks download on Project Gutenberg.
