Also, last week's
Humble Book Bundle Prime Sci-Fantasy has added 3 more anthologies to the more-than-average tier, including time travel, zombies, and more Cthulhu (not all in the same anthology, mind you).
StoryBundle has a new offering, good for the next 28 days:
The VanderMeer Winter Mix Tape Bundle curated by Ann (
ISFDB,
Wikipedia) & Jeff VanderMeer (
ISFDB,
Wikipedia), continues their tradition of offering speculative/experimental literary & sf/fantasy fiction from diverse sources such as translated foreign authors and niche works, many of them not available as ebooks from other sources.
There's works by Finland's Leena Krohn (
ISFDB,
Wikipedia), Germany's Eugen Egner (
ISFDB,
Wikipedia DE), Norway's Berit Ellingsen (
ISFDB), as well as story contributions from better-known World Fantasy, Hugo, and Nebula award-winners and finalists.
$5 minimum gets you a World Fantasy Award-finalist novel, a literary fantasy novel, a Spanish steampunk anthology, a themed anthology of space opera featuring women heroes, and the collected edition of Leena Krohn's novels (including 2 novels not previously published in English).
$15 top tier adds 2 novels by foreign authors and 2 anthologies (one of them a complete collection of a year's worth of Clarkseworld magazine stories; the other an imaginary bestiary filled with stories by notable fantasy authors including China Mieville), as well as Leena Krohn's collected short fiction.
This is pretty much an auto-buy for me, since I'm always interested in seeing speculative fiction from other countries/cultures, and the complete set of Krohn novels alone would probably make it worth it in monetary terms, even if the other stuff didn't look interesting (which it does).
