Okay, but just for a month. Safari Books Online, in conjunction with Boing Boing's soon-to-be-announced "game development challenge", is opening up access to five recent game development titles.

Check 'em out at http://www.safaribooksonline.com/boingboing/gamedev/

Thank you for the link.
I already have "iPhone Game Development" as a hard copy, but the other books seem really interesting.

"Fundamentals..." seems to be a great read. I'm wondering what format does it use? My eBook-reader renders PDF really ugly if zoom-in it (and it's almost impossible to read it with less than zoom-in x3).

Not sure, I've had the same problem with most of the devices I've tried to read it on. Also, the "Print" option when ran through a PDF printer only gives you the current page, so no real good way to get a copy to read offline :(.
