Harlequin Vintage Bundle

I was exploring the Sony eBook store and found this bundle of six books. Appear to be from the 50's/60's.

http://ebookstore.sony.com/bundle/ha...turedBundles_1

Has anyone purchased this bundle? Is it any good?

Includes:
I'll Bury My Dead by James Hadley Chase
You Never Know with Women by James Hadley Chase
Pardon My Body by James Hadley Chase
No Nice Girl by Perry Lindsay
Kiss Your Elbow by Alan Handley
Virgin with Butterflies by Tom Powers

Price is $20.76.

So, anyone purchased?

I have to get back to work but will check in later!

Goldie

Hmmm... I've only read James Hadley Chase in the context of pulp crime novels (check out Black Mask/Munsey's for some examples), and from the listed titles I'd assume more of the same...

I enjoyed the novels I read... but I love stuff from the period. Nice and short so you can finish in a day. Fast-paced. Slightly risque but not lurid by today's standards. Since murder is involved, its always about money, power or sex. Fun stuff!

Haven't bought them, but I noticed an ad at Fictionwise a while ago and there is one in my wishlist (Virgin with Butterflies). I like to read old popular fiction once in a while

So if anyone is interested, the books are available separately at Fictionwise (I think - can't access it at the moment).
