I have a dilemma.

I have just found out that Baen ebooks are available at Kobo (& in the UK, if you wait a bit longer), and are discountable.

Back in 2012, I didn't buy many of the Baen monthly bundles because I was trying to cut down severely on my book buying. I thought I'd pick up the important ones I missed when they came out in paperback the next year, and appeared in another bundle.

But some didn't. Including No Going Back by Mark L. Van Name, the latest in a series I've enjoyed a lot.

The paperback still isn't scheduled on Baen's site. So. Should I buy it now with a 75% off coupon I got in the last contest? Or should I wait?

For getting it now: There's no guarantee it'll come out in paperback from Baen, and there's no guarantee that Baen books will continue to be couponable, or that I'll get a 75% off coupon in future contests.

For waiting: I'm already well over budget for the first three months of this year. And my TBR is about 30 books up on the start of the year.

Is this too good to pass up? Or should I wait, since I've waited so long (almost 2 years) already?
