And even Amazon does this, as with the Ed McBain titles, and with their Thomas & Mercer and AmazonCrossing titles. (Probably with others too, but those are the ones I've noticed...)
Just haven't seen it with any of the really big/traditional publishers, sigh! There are a couple of series that I wish I could get, but they are locked up with the big five or big six or whatever it is now... |
The Canadian section of HarperCollins always has a rotating selection of ebooks on sale for $1.99 many of them being non-fiction.
