December Orbit Dollar Book: Orcs

koland · 12-01-2009, 02:07 PM

November's One Dollar Book from Orbit is Orcs, by Stan Nicholls, an omnibus edition that contains the full Orcs: First Blood Trilogy (Bodyguard of Lightning, Legion of Thunder and Warriors of the Tempest) and has been selling for $9.99 in the Kindle store. Currently, only Amazon & Barnes & Noble has updated with the new price, so be sure to check closely before ordering.

Book Description
"Look at me. Look at the Orc."

"There is fear and hatred in your eyes. To you I am a monster, a skulker in the shadows, a fiend to scare your children with. A creature to be hunted down and slaughtered like a beast in the fields.

It is time you pay heed to the beast. And see the beast in yourself. I have your fear. But I have earned your respect.

Hear my story. Feel the flow of blood and be thankful. Thankful that it was me, not you, who bore the sword. Thankful to the orcs; born to fight, destined to win peace for all."

This book will change the way you feel about Orcs forever.

Not every ebookstore has been matching Orbit's suggested sales price on their dollar books, but I'll include links for the major ones here, so you can check for other formats besides the Kindle one above.

Good book. Read the paper edition and really like it. There are also two sequels out now as well.

Amazon now has the book at $1, so I updated the original post.

Too bad I bought it a few months ago...

We will have to wait until BooksOnBoard fix up their pricing error before you can buy the EPUB edition for $1.
At present it says List Price $1 Savings -$13 Price $14.

Time to rush out and save -$13 on it .

I agree.
I read the book in paper a few years ago, I enjoyed it, so feel free to take advantage of this offer if you like fantasy with an original point of view.

I would love to pick up the sequels in ebook, but I have this problem where I can't get myself to buy an ebook that costs over $10 nor that is not cheaper than a paper edition. So, I wait.

Got tired of waiting for BoB to fix their pricing to I went over to FictionWise where there was no problem. It seems I also has some micropay rebates from their 100% discount still sitting in my account. I just bought Orcs for $.50 got to love eBooks and Fictionwise.
