In the process of looking for some Simon Brett titles, I just noticed that a number of Severn House backlist titles from some good mystery authors have come out in ebook in the US in the last month (Nov 2011) at good prices ($2.99). I don't know if these are temporary price reductions or intended to be the normal prices, but I grabbed a bunch - I hope that will encourage more!

The authors include: Simon Brett, Tim Heald, Paul Johnston, and Paul Doherty.

I've been using some affiliate links this morning (thanks koland and arcadata!), and am not sure my links would be "clean", so I'm not going to post links. But the titles that I found at BN include:

Simon Brett:
Cast in Order of Disappearance (Charles Paris)
So Much Blood (Charles Paris)
Mrs, Presumed Dead (Mrs Pargeter - I love this series - LOL)
Nice Class of Corpse (Mrs Pargeter)

Tim Heald:
Blue Blood Will Out
Unbecoming Habits

Paul Johnston:
Body Politic
The Boneyard

Paul Doherty
The Nightingale Gallery
House of the Red Slayer

Some of these are also available at Amazon.

I suspect (someone from the UK can probably confirm) that some of these have been available in the UK for a while, but I am really happy to see the Simon Brett titles, and the others, available here in the US at a reasonable price. I hope Severn House makes more titles like this available in the future.
