Kobo Canada is having a pretty decent “Explore titles that are out of this world” sf/fantasy/horror sale until May 8th, with selections from large publisher imprint to small press and indie authors, for $3.99 CAD or less:

(ETA 2: The corresponding Kobo US sale runs to just May 6th and has a slightly different set of featured titles & categories, at $3.99 USD or less)

Main page, with categories: General Science Fiction & Fantasy, Epic Fantasy, Romantic Science Fiction & Fantasy, Paranormal, Dystopian, Historical Science Fiction, Horror in Science Fiction & Fantasy, Science Fiction & Fantasy in Young Adult, More to Explore

A good chunk of it is both indie and romantic (m/m included, if you're interested).

But there are also some pretty good sfnal offerings in there, including a complete novella collection of Ursula K. Le Guin from Saga Press, and also some Ken Liu and Stephen Baxter & Alistair Reynolds, Kameron Hurley, shorts collections from Kim Stanley Robinson & Elizabeth Hand and others via specialty publisher PM Press (who were pretty generous with the freebies several years ago), Aurora Award-winning Canadian author Douglas Smith (ISFDB), Tiptree Award-winning Finnish author Johanna Sinisalo (ISFDB, Wikipedia), and a very funny backlist science fiction mystery adventure novel (previously from DAW) by John Zakour (ISFDB, Wikipedia) & Lawrence Ganem (ISFDB), 1st in his John Zachary Nixon series starring the future planet's last P. I., which I read a long time ago and enjoyed, and wish they'd get the other books out since apparently DAW is no longer offering them.

ETA: there's also an illustrated story which won the 1995 for Best Original Artwork, by artist Brian Froud (ISFDB, Wikipedia), out from Abrams Media. And early sfnal classics from the late literary author J. G. Ballard (ISFDB, Wikipedia) and Russian science fiction author Arkady Strugatsky (ISFDB, Wikipedia).
