Aeronaut's Windlass - $8.90 paperback, $9.99 Kindle,
Skin Game - $7.52 paperback, $9.99 Kindle. Well, actually, it is a perfect $9.99 all the way to
Storm Front for the Kindle edition. Some paperbacks even come up to almost $10 when I looked at Amazon. Both paperback and Kindle used to be around $8. I am sure Amazon could discount the paperbacks down lower, but that would show an even bigger gap to the ebooks. The fault lies entirely with the publisher.
So as much as it may hurt me, but since I am already so used to waiting, what difference is another six months going to do. So for
Peace Talks I will be waiting for the ebook to drop down to $9.99 before buying.
It is not like I am going to run out of other more affordable books to read that are published by Indie, Inc. Especially those that are willing to put their books into Kindle Unlimited will have an even bigger chance to be read by me.
So there is that. If I stand alone, then I will stand alone.
