Bargain @ 99 cents each for US-only from "HarperCollins e-books":

Auto-search sorted by price and filtered by category @ Kobo, but probably price-matched in your favourite US store and eligible for the OmniLit 50% off Hallowe'en rebate mentioned by GeoffR in his alert thread here.

Some highlights:
  • The X-Files tie-in novels if you're feeling nostalgia with the re-mastered Blu-Ray sets due out (these are original-plot ones, not novelizations; out of the ones I've read, the two by Charles Grant are the best, IMHO, though Kevin J. Anderson's Ground Zero is not bad)
  • Sheri S. Tepper, (ISFDB, Wikipedia) pioneering feminist science fiction writer
  • Sean Williams, (ISFDB, Wikipedia) NYT bestselling Australian sf/fantasy author
  • Marc Zicree (ISFDB, Wikipedia), who wrote The Twilight Zone Companion and is always invited to give commentaries/interviews on the DVD/Blu-Ray collections, and co-authored a middling-decent post-apocalyptic fantasy series with one of the volumes in conjunction with my very favourite fantasy/mystery author, Barbara Hambly (ISFDB, Wikipedia), which just happens to be one of the few books of hers I don't already own in paper
Although there's not nearly as many offerings for sf/fantasy as there are for their other sale categories, they've also also some Gregory Benford, Holly Lisle, an Anne McCaffrey co-write, and a lot of Hartwell-edited Year's Best anthologies.
