StoryBundle has a new offering up, for:
The Aurora Award Bundle 3 curated by Canadian author Douglas Smith (
ISFDB), himself thrice a recipient of Canada's top sfnal prize, containing a mix of works by various other alumni.
It looks like pretty much every novel on offer has been either an Aurora nominee or a winner, across a range of genres from YA steampunk adventure through to horror as well as more standard sf/fantasy, plus two anthologies of Canadian writing. ETA: Here's a nice
review and contents description/listing of
Tesseracts 14 from the Canadian Review of Materials magazine hosted by the University of Manitoba.
$5 minimum gets you 4 titles, including a vampire fiction anthology with a story in Tanya Huff's popular Blood Books series (basis of the TV show
Blood Ties) which hasn't been reprinted elsewhere yet, according to ISFDB, and a 2003 Edo van Belkom (
ISFDB,
Wikipedia) horror novel originally out from Kensington's Pinnacle imprint
$15 top tier adds 6 more titles, including 2 works by Hugo Award-winning fellow MR member author Robert J. Sawyer:
Far-Seer has previously been offered as a freebie and in the recent Adventure Sci-Fi StoryBundle, but
Relativity, his collection of essays and short stories and writing advice columns (the latter also available on his website, IIRC) is brand new, as far as I can tell. There's also one of the annual Tesseracts showcase anthologies.
Humble Bundle also has a new offering up, for:
Humble Book Bundle Start a Startup by Wiley, containing topical DIY business books from the publisher of the popular “Dummies” guides, with several titles especially suited to tech startups.
Fixed tiers of $1, $8, and $15 (no new titles added next week).
