There are 122 books in total, if I counted right. The selection includes both non-fiction and fiction, and cuts across many genres. There are some really good titles among them.

All books are $2.99 and under! This represents a huge discount on most of these books. I did a spot-check of 7 or 8 books, and the price points that I found were $1.99 and $2.99.

HCP directs you to buy the ebooks directly from them. However, it looks like if you don't have a(n) 1) iPhone/iPad, 2) Android, or 3) Kindle Fire, you are out of luck--HCP has only products for them. On top of that, you have to use their proprietary reader. In the aforementioned spot-check that I did, however, I found that Amazon has the same prices on them. And, of course, the books are Kindle/mobis, so you can use any one of various readers for Kindle.

I didn't find an expiration date anywhere, so as they say around here, "you snooze, you lose."

Here's the link: http://www.harpercollins.com/billboarddealslide3.
Great find, but I apparently haven't been spreading my Karma around enough lately! Anyway, other stores have the same prices, so it looks like this is a publisher sale for everyone.
