StoryBundle also has a new bundle, good for the next couple of weeks:
Women in Fantasy curated by former Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction editor and successful multi-genre author Kristine Kathryn Rusch (
ISFDB,
Wikipedia).
This contains a number of both backlist and recently-written fantasy novels across various subgenres from epic high fantasy to urban to comedic, by established women fantasy authors, including Judith Tarr (
ISFDB,
Wikipedia; one of my personal favourites for historical fantasy, though her offering in this is for epic high), Baen author P.N. Elrod (
ISFDB,
Wikipedia; probably better known for her vampire detective stuff), and more.
At the $5 minimum level, you get 4 novels + 1 anthology.
At the $15 top-tier level, you get an additional 5 novels, including Elrod's 2003 Baen-published humorous comedy-of-errors anthropomorphic wizard fantasy, Rusch's 1993 ROC-published revenge drama high fantasy, and the 2002 Tor-published 6th installment in Tarr's epic fantasy Avaryan Rising multi-generational saga.
And
Humble Book Bundle Origami Yoda from the popular series of Star Wars-influenced kids/YA schoolboy adventure novels from last week is still available.
