Rafe Furst has published a way of reading entire books for free on Amazon. By searching for a set of keywords which progresses you through an entire book, you create a Covering Set. It sounds a bit heavy-weight to me...
Quoted: A set of keywords that lets you read an entire book for free on Amazon is a covering set (CS). If the number of keywords in a CS is less than or equal to that of all other CSs for the same book, then it is a Minimal Amazon Covering Set (MACS). There may be more than one MACS for any given book. (And yes, someone who is highly skilled at discovering these could be considered a “MACS book pro”).

A nice historical retelling of the Amazon and Ebay stores and their relative successes and failures.
