Wonder eBooks 40% Off

[Catlady]

Wonder eBooks is offering 40 percent off with code MURDER40OFF till the end of the month. They publish vintage mystery, romance, and SF. The coupon applies to the entire contents of your cart; I don't know if it's single or multiple use.

From what it says on the website, I'm surprised it even applies to a whole cart. The website (see below) really makes it sound like one book-one time. So, I'm going to assume it's just one cart-one time, and that means I have to spend some time to dig through their books and see what I want. I do like some of the old noir/pulp books!

Thanks a lot, OP, for making me spend MORE time digging through MORE e-books (Karma coming your way...)

Wouldn’t it be fun to burrow holes and eat through electronic leaves of some mystery vintage fiction release, at 40% OFF? How about some science fiction? or both!?
Get Jim Thompson’s—“Nothing More Than Murder” or any other title for 40% off.
Just enter this discount code at checkout & it’s all yours at 40% less:
MURDER40OFF
Indeed, a yummy treat until the end of August!

I tried putting several books into the cart (including genres other than mystery and SF) and applied the coupon, which discounted the whole cart by 40 percent. I was only testing and didn't complete the purchase, however.

Thanks for the karma!

Any idea if this is just public domain titles?

Also, do they use DRM?

Not sure about the DRM. I did not buy anything directly from that site yet, but I have bought Wonder ebooks from Fictionwise, and they are also available at Amazon, BN, Kobo, etc.

Some of their titles can be found for free at Munseys, so you might check there first (also here at the MR library). I've been very pleased with the Wonder titles I've bought--they were very nicely formatted, with few typos. I just finished reading the four "Masters of Noir" anthologies they published and definitely recommend those. All the stories were ones I hadn't seen as freebies at Munseys or other sites offering free pulp titles.

Thanks OP!
