A few years back I wrote about a website called Forgotten Books. Someone from the site recently wrote me to say that they’ve been updating so I thought I’d write about it again.
It’s pretty fabulous – over 1,000,000 books available for download. And despite the name of the site, the books might be old, but not all of them have been forgotten.
There are titles like The Art of War by Lau Tzu, Bram Stoker’s Dracula, and Arthur Conan Doyle’s The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes.
The Prophecies of Nostradamus are there, as is Darwin’s The Origin of Species, and of course, the ever-popular Kama Sutra of Vatsayayana.
Though there’s nothing new at Forgotten Books, what’s great is that all the books are free … or at least the first 50 downloads per computer, kindle, or other reading device are.
That’s a lot of reading material. If you want even more though, membership rates or one-time download packages are quite reasonable.
For Tarot people in particular, there’s a huge esoteric section. And there are a number of titles specifically about Tarot.
Classics like Papus’ The Tarot of the Bohemians, MacGregor Mathers’ The Tarot, and Arthur E. Waite’s’, The Pictorial Key to the Tarot.
It’s easy to see how this post could turn into nothing more than a long list so I’m going to stop here.
I’ll add only that if you like free classic books of any kind, you should visit the site and look around for yourself.
