New Humble Bundle is up, and it's for:

Humble Book Bundle Win at Work containing mostly business-oriented advice titles from publishers Berrett-Koehler (Wikipedia) and Mango Media (publishers of the Associated Press history books for which we've gotten a couple of freebies and an HB), with a few non-business-centric personal grooming, communication, financial, and time management self-helpers, including motivational speaker Stephen R. Covey's bestselling (Wikipedia)'s The 7 Habit of Highly Effective People (Wikipedia), which is available in the middle tier probably sells for that much already at the regular price.

Fixed tiers of $1, $8, and $15 (no new titles added next week). There looks to be no substantial overlap with Berrett-Koehler's previous Be the Boss and Hacking Capitalism HBs, making for an all-new selection of books, if you happened to have picked up the previous offerings.

Winner winner humble dinner. Our latest bundle of books is here to help you navigate your business challenges (and look sharp doing it). Get a library of titles from Berrett-Koehler and Mango Media, including Notoriously Dapper, Hustle Away Debt, Negotiating the Impossible, and – oh, did we mention Humble Inquiry: The Gentle Art of Asking Instead of Telling? We like that one.

Still available are the previous HBs for Humble Book Bundle Bitcoin, Blockchain, and Cryptocurrency containing tech explainers and DIY programming books, and Humble RPG Book Bundle Pathfinder Worldscape Ultimate Crossover presented by Paizo and Dynamite containing a mix of RPG supplements and tie-in comics for various popular mostly public domain spin-off franchises being crossed over, with options for collectible physical merchandise, if you're into that.

StoryBundle has a new offering for:

The Fear Bundle curated by former Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction editor Kristine Kathryn Rusch containing a mix of multi-genre suspense-oriented titles with newer works from established and indie authors, ranging from serial killer thrillers to outright horror. Contributors include Canadians Rebecca M. Senese (ISFDB) & Mark Leslie (ISFDB), both Aurora-nominated for their short stories, Tor & Pocket Books-published fellow Canadian Sean Costello (ISFDB, Wikipedia), Gary Jonas (ISFDB) who has been contributing to small press magazines since the 1990s, and more.

$5 minimum gets you 4 titles, including one of those Fiction River anthologies and a dark fantasy novella by Rusch which was originally out from Subterranean Press
$15 top tiers adds 6 more titles, which looks like they're all novels

Just a reminder that expiring within the next few days is their The Adventure Sci-Fi Bundle curated by Kevin J. Anderson, containing a mix of backlist and newly-written titles by established and newer authors. Still available for a while longer are their The 2017 NaNoWriMo Writing Tools Bundle also curated by Anderson, full of practical career and creative advice for aspiring authors, as well as writing-adjacent tech guides, and The SFWA Fantasy Bundle curated by Cat Rambo, containing backlist reprints and newer contributions by assorted member authors of the Science Fiction Writers of America.

Bundle of Holding's new RPG gamebook offering is for: Rippers, a Victorian monster hunter game in the Savage Worlds setting from Pinnacle Entertainment, containing both the original Rippers and the newer Rippers Resurrected lines, plus a few extras.

For Lovecraftian aficionados, two separate but apparently crossover-compatible games from Cubicle 7 Entertainment (makers of the rather nice official tie-in RPG for Charles Stross' urban fantasy series The Laundry Files) using the Call of Cthulhu game system are offered: World War Cthulhu featuring British spies throughout various historical eras from WWII onwards, and Cthulhu Britannica with a more general London setting. Apparently the latter is a repeat that has been enhanced with a few new materials (top-tier purchasers of the older versions apparently get all the new stuff retroactively added to their libraries, which is pretty nice of them).

And still available until the end of the week is their Demon: The Descent Bundle, another occult espionage thriller from Onyx Path Publishing in the Chronicles of Darkness setting, wherein this storyline, you play fallen angels defected to humanity in a noir-ish spy setting full of secret identities, conspiracies, and backstabbing betrayals.
