My two cents is that going by the rule of free works and their derivatives must also be free, the author should consider releasing the book (TXT or PDF format) under a copyleft license and to be fair to the effort the author has put in, he should charge a fee for the kindle/e-book hardcopy/printed/paper edition.
And that's "fair", eh?
Advocating this approach sounds like a good way to ensure that no one who actually writes for a living, as opposed to doing it as some sort of hobby or therapy or something, ever writes a book having anything to do with "free" software...
