Bargain (DRM-free) Bradley P. Beaulieu 3-book bundle for $5 [Sci-Fi/Fantasy]

ATDrake · 01-06-2013, 03:13 AM

So it turns out Night Shade Books-published author Bradley P. Beaulieu, from whom we've previously received an official freebie is hosting a Kickstarter project to make an e-book collection of his short stories.

The funding is already successful, and as an added bonus incentive to help purchase illustrations for the stories, Beaulieu has upped the rewards for the various pledge levels, so that your basic $5 pledge will not only get you a DRM-free ePub/Mobi/PDF bundle of the upcoming collection, but also e-book editions of two of his Night Shade fantasy novels, The Winds of Khalakovo (previously free), and The Straits of Galahesh ($6 at Baen).

The collection will include a newly written short story set in that world, alongside about a dozen previously-published short stories which have appeared in venues such as Realms of Fantasy magazine and various DAW anthologies.

This seems like a really good deal at 3 books of professionally edited material for $5, so here it is @ Kickstarter should you be interested in the 4 days remaining.

If you want to throw some extra money at the author, you can get signed personalized editions with a contributor credit, or an added paperback, or even have one of your story ideas written up for the collection.

All levels of pledge come with the 3-book bundle (scroll down on the description page to see the full details of the extra rewards, which could not be edited into the sidebar descriptions).

Just to add that this is funded via Amazon US so won't work without a US account
Pity

Kickstarter works through Amazon Payments, so you do need an account with the main Amazon site, but you don't need to be a US person to use it, so long as you have a valid credit card for any eligible country (you will be charged in USD).

More info in their FAQ page.

I joined this project, thanks ATDrake! Amazon payment didn't ask for a delivery address, and I was ale to use a New Zealand billing address and credit card with no problem.
