I haven't tried this code for myself, but UChi is usually pretty good at doing what they say...
They have mostly academic non-fiction, as you'd expect. And their website is pretty easy to navigate by subject. They also have some fiction titles, including most or all of the Judge Dee series by Richard van Gulik (loosely based on a real historical character), the first three titles in Margaret Doody's enjoyable Aristotle Detective (yes, that Aristotle) series, and a good chunk (maybe all) of Richard Stark's Parker series (Stark was a pen name for Donald E Westlake).
UChi's books tend to be a little pricey, so even at 75% off they are not super-cheap, but better than you will do most of the year...
Here's a link to their homepage:

And here are links to the three authors I mentioned:
