My eReaderIQ notifications are going nuts right now, so many sales happening, several of which have already been mentioned in comments above. I came to share the Uplift Storm Trilogy omnibus, on sale in the US but not Canada, currently $3 at Amazon, $4 at Kobo (though they've price-matched Amazon's $3 for me already), down from $25.

This is the second trilogy in Brin's Uplift setting; I have greatly enjoyed Sundiver and especially Startide Rising, and plan to read The Uplift War still, so I'm glad to get the chance to pick up the next trilogy for such a steal. I'm not sure, but I get the impression that having read Startide Rising and The Uplift War will be important context for the Uplift Storm trilogy (but I welcome opinions from anybody more familiar with the series than I am).

The award-winning author’s complete second trilogy of the Uplift Saga, featuring a planet of refugees, a fugitive Earthling ship, and her dolphin/human crew.
Brightness Reef
Six outcast races hunker down on the off-limits planet Jijo when a mysterious starship lands. However, it doesn’t bring the “law” they feared, but something worse—a dark secret the invaders will do anything to keep . . .
Infinity’s Shore
Earthship Streaker, with its dolphin and human crew, has been on the run for three years after discovering a derelict armada whose mere existence seems to drive the Five Galaxies mad. With Earth under siege and nowhere to turn, Streaker has come to far-off, isolated Jijo in search of sanctuary amid its population of secret refugees. Unfortunately, they’ve been followed . . .
Heaven’s Reach
With the arrival of deadly enemies, the peaceful isolation of Jijo’s six exile races has ended. While the races join forces to fight invaders, the Earthship Streaker must lure other foes into weird layers of the unknown. Meanwhile, a dire prophecy may put the entire universe at risk . . .
