Del Rey has partnered with booksellers to provide the free download. AllBooks.com, Amazon.com, BarnesandNoble.com, Booksense.com, Borders.com, Deepdiscount.com, the eBook story from Sony, Overstock.com, and Powells.com have agreed to make the file available to their customers.
"This giveaway is a great way to introduce the legions of Star Wars fans to our books," commented Christine Cabello, Deputy Director of Marketing at the Random House Publishing Group, who oversaw the execution of this initiative. "We also expect that it will build awareness and excitement for the on-sale date of the final book in the series, Invincible."

I did download my copy. The only problem is that the link in the email doesn't take you to the right page, instead redirecting to Random House whom i guess are the publishers...
After a google search I came across this link, which is where me thinks the original should have gone...

Enjoy!
