At ChisolmTrailDem's suggestion, I'm making an OP of my post on his thread. The following links are to sites online where you can either download to your ebook reader or just read online. You can also get add-ons for your browser that will send an article to your reader. So, essentially, everything below could work well on your Kindle, Nook, or whatever
Welcome to the largest freely available archive of online books about religion, mythology, folklore and the esoteric on the Internet. The site is dedicated to religious tolerance and scholarship, and has the largest readership of any similar site on the web.
Welcome to the Theoi Project, a site exploring Greek mythology and the gods in classical literature and art. The aim of the project is to provide a comprehensive, free reference guide to the gods (theoi), spirits (daimones), fabulous creatures (theres) and heroes of ancient Greek mythology and religion.

Project Gutenberg offers over 50,000 free ebooks: choose among free epub books, free kindle books, download them or read them online.
We carry high quality ebooks: Our ebooks were previously published by bona fide publishers. We digitized and diligently proofread them with the help of thousands of volunteers.

Anyone who wishes can read these titles online no conditions, no strings attached.

(URLs to sites which offer the readers for these format are also listed.)
