The new Humble Bundle is up for the
Humble Sci-Fi Book Bundle 2 presented by WordFire Press:
It's mostly newer indie stuff by established sfnal authors, but there are some backlist reprint titles by authors like Jody Lynn Nye (
ISFDB,
Wikipedia), Mike Resnick (
ISFDB,
Wikipedia), the late Frank Herbert (
ISFDB,
Wikipedia), and Dave Wolverton (
ISFDB,
Wikipedia) writing as David Farland.
Copy-paste contents (current better-than-average is just under $10 (with more titles to be added next Wednesday), top-tier is $15 which disappointingly seems to consist of mainly tie-in novellas):
Quote:
Name your price for The Dark Lady: A Romance of the Far Future, The Golden Queen, The Ferryman & the Flame 1: Surrender, Lifeline, Ocean, and Second Paradigm.
If you pay more than the average price, you'll also get Assemblers of Infinity, Working Stiff: The Cases of Dan Shamble, Zombie PI, Five By Five 3: Target Zone, Mythworld: The Festival of Bones, Mythology 101, and The Godmakers.
If you pay $15 or more, you'll receive all of the above plus Beasts of Tabat, Drumbeats, and Veiled Alliances: A Prequel Novella to the Epic Space Opera The Saga of Seven Suns.

A fair amount of these have been offered free or as part of previous StoryBundles in the past, so you might already have a significant overlap of titles if you've been getting the latter.
Speaking of StoryBundle, they currently have 2 sfnal offerings:
- Time Travel Bundle ends in 8 days.
Pay what you want tier for 5 titles including a Kevin J. Anderson novel, $14 or more for an additional 6 titles including a backlist novel by Lisa Mason (ISFDB, Wikipedia), and some Kristine Kathryn Rusch (former editor of The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction, as well as a noted trad-published author in her own right before starting up her own indie imprint and online sf magazine).
- Crossing Worlds YA Bundle ends in 15 days.
Pay what you want tier for 5 titles, $12 or more for an additional 4 titles, including a Mercedes Lackey (ISFDB, Wikipedia) story set in her Elemental Masters universe (NB: this appears in her Baen-published story collection, which if you're not interested in any of the other YA titles, is cheaper and couponable at Kobo), and get 1 more for subscribing to the newsletter.
