RosettaBooks into Film (Amazon) $0.99 [13 Books]

ETA: Amazon Kindle Daily Deal and Gold Box Daily Deal - Books Made into Films for $0.99

************************************************** ************

I found a few RosettaBooks into Film ebooks priced at $0.99 (regularly $6.99- $7.99) when checking out the Ed McBain books I was missing. Individual inks in no particular order:

Fuzz by Ed McBain (#22 in the 87th Precinct series)
Red Alert by Peter Bryant (the basis for Dr. Strangelove)
The Day of the Triffids by John Wyndham (I love this book and coincidentally my husband is reading it right this minute)
An American Tragedy by Theodore Dreiser (filmed as A Day in the Sun)
The Sand Pebbles by Richard McKenna
Friday the Rabbi Slept Late by Harry Kemelman (filmed as Lanigan's Rabbi)
Who Goes There? by John W. Campbell (the basis for The Thing)
Wizard's First Rule by Terry Goodkind
In the Heat of the Night by John Ball
The Midwich Cuckoos by John Wyndham (the basis for The Village of the Damned)
Make Room! Make Room! by Harry Harrison (filmed as Solyent Green)
Midnight Cowboy by James Leo Herlihy
The Asphalt Jungle by W. R. Burnett

You can do a search for "rosettabooks into film" and then sort by price to bring up the books if that's easier for you. Happy shopping!

Looks like there are a few more RosettaBooks on sale that weren't part of the "into Film" series and didn't show up in my initial search:

Shoeless Joe by W. P. Kinsella (filmed as Field of Dreams)
Slaughterhouse-five by Kurt Vonnegut
The Brave Cowboy by Edward Abbey (filmed as Lonely are the Brave)

If anyone stumbles across others that may not have been available to me in Canada, please post them.

Thanks, that one is full price for Canadians.

Aha, the price drop is for the Kindle Daily Deal and Gold Box Daily Deal, "20 great novels that inspired movies". Here's the link for the works. I'll go edit the OP.

Titles not yet mentioned that are also included:

To Dance with the White Dog by Terry Kay

Girl in Hyacinth Blue by Susan Vreeland

Bang the Drum Slowly by Mark Harris (not available in Canada)

Thanks, Synamon!
Lots of cool stuff here-- picked up a couple (couldn't pass up Slaughterhouse 5!), probably pick up some more.
