Some days I find some killer deals on e-books. Today’s find is CABAL by Clive Barker. The book was the basis for the horror movie Nightbreed. The book is only 99 cents at Amazon, Barnes & Noble and Kobo. (Sorry IOS users, it was listed at $4.99 on iTunes at the time of this writing.)
If you are a fan of urban fantasy, you might be interested in Amazon’s Deal of the Day today. Amazon is offering the first seven of Jim Butcher’s Dresden Files series for just $1.99 each. This is a great price; the books normally run much higher. The books are also on sale today at Barnes and Noble for the NOOK and at the Kobo store.
This is a delightful series if you enjoy the genre. Harry Dresden is Chicago’s only professional Wizard. I first watched TV series, which led me to the books. Now, I always visualize Paul Blackthorne as Harry. Personally, I find them especially delightful as I live in Northwest Indiana and am quite familiar with Chicago and the surrounding area. One of the books actually had a scene set in the city where I live! 🙂
I am not sure if it is dystopia week on Amazon or not! But yesterday’s deal of the day featured The Handmaid’s Tale. Today’s Kindle Deal of the Day is the Newberry Medal winning The Giver by Lois Lowry, another dystopian classic. I bought this one last year at regular price, so only 99 cents is another amazing deal.
This great YA book is a favorite of teachers and librarians and has become a standard in middle school and high school English classes. Check out some of the reviews from younger readers. It certainly provokes an intense reaction!
Margaret Atwood’s dystopian classic, The Handmaid’s Tale is the Kindle Deal of the Day for today, Thursday, December 29th. The book is on sale for just $1.49.
Set in the not-to distant future, the book paints a chilling portrait on the role of women in society.
There are more than 900 titles on sale in today’s Cyber Monday Kindle Daily Deal . The sale includes some gems by authors such as Robert McCammon, Iris Murdoch, and Patricia Wentworth. I just picked up McCammon’s Swan Song and Ira Levin’s This Perfect Day for $2.99 each The books offered span a variety of genres and also a good selection of non-fiction books, including a variety of knitting books.
Today is the also the last day for the Kindle DX at the sale price of $259.
Ever since the Agency Pricing model took effect, most readers of eBooks have seen the prices of eBooks skyrocket. (Case in point: the enhanced Kindle version of Stephen King’s 11/22/63 is currently listed for pre-order at $18.99. The hardcover sells for only $19.98.) That leaves many Kindleowners looking for bargains.
Besides the top 100 paid Kindle books, Amazon lists the top 100 free books available in the Kindle Store. However, many people don’t realize that Amazon also lists a Kindle Daily Deal, where a Kindle book is available for a day at deeply discounted prices. The deal varies and can be fiction or non-fiction with selections generally priced between 99 cents and $2.99.
Generally, these books are quite a bargain. I have found $13-15 ebooks listed for less than $5.00. Today I picked up The Phoenix Apostles mystery for only $1.99.
As its name implies, the book selection changes daily.
