From August 4th (yesterday) through August 10th, The Best of Lucius Shepard (regularly $2.99) and The Dragon Griaule (regularly $4.99) are only $1.99. Those links will take you to the publisher's site, where you'll find direct links to purchase pages at Amazon US, Barnes and Noble, and Kobo. I believe SubPress e-books are only available to US buyers.

There's one story that appears in both these collections, but otherwise the contents are distinct. The Dragon Griaule is a set of linked stories that also connects to that newly-released novel, Beautiful Blood, which is also available as an e-book, but at the full price of $6.99.
Lucius Shepard was a national treasure, and his passing leaves us without one of the great voices of speculative fiction. If you've never experienced him, and still aren't convinced to buy these books even at drastically reduced prices, you should be aware that several of these, including the original Griaule story, can be read on-line for free at the links found on this page.

"R&R" is probably the greatest single piece of fiction I've ever read.
