I mean, really free, not copyrighted (or public domain), on PDF or EPUB.
Sensei's Library is great, but I'm looking for something with a little more structure.
Also, keep in mind that I'm a low kyu, so even basic things as a san-san may be helpfull.
Thanks
Any good FREE Go Books on the internet ?

Re: Any good FREE Go Books on the internet ?
There's a lot of free, useful content about Go on the web.
For example:
(this forum)
http://senseis.xmp.net/
http://gogameguru.com/
http://www.usgo.org/
http://ranka.intergofed.org/
http://www.gogod.co.uk/
http://gobase.org/ (maybe not free anymore?)
And this is just off the top of my head.
Maybe you already know about all these sites? I'm just pointing them out because I'm kind of confused about what you want exactly. Are you looking for a free PDF, for example? How is that more useful than a website? Do you need something that's portable when you're offline or are you mainly looking for something that's more structured than most web pages?

There are two volumes of "River Mountain Go" by Oliver Richman. You can find a link to download them here.

Re: Any good FREE Go Books on the internet ?
Guys,
Thanks for the input. Just what I was looking for.
@gogameguru :
I prefer PDFs not only for the portability, but also cause they were written to be read as a whole.
The internet sites are great for refferences, i.e. what is a big eye, tsumegos, 4x4 invasions, etc. but you need to know what you are looking for.
You guys rule !
