FREE/BARGAIN — Science Fiction & Fantasy

It depends on the bundle. Some bundles are fulfilled through the Kobo store, but this one is a direct download from Humble Bundle.

For this bundle, the email I received from them has a link to each book and a link that downloads all books individually. The last bundle I purchased linked to the Kobo store. Seems about 50/50 in the last year.

I just had to purchase a new monitor so my book funds for the month are gone. I have the first 3 books of the black company, and I have reread his
Starfishers Series many times.

I think it depends if the publisher is okay with DRM-free or not. If not, Kobo.

Thanks for the replies. So, in this case a gift may work for those not in North America.

Book 1 in the Witch Roads duology, the latest epic novel by fan favorite Kate Elliott..

Status is hereditary, class is bestowed, trust must be earned.

When an arrogant prince (and his equally arrogant entourage) gets stuck in Orledder Halt as part of brutal political intrigue, competent and sunny deputy courier Elen—once a child slave meant to shield noblemen from the poisonous Pall—is assigned to guide him through the hills to reach his destination.

When she warns him not to enter the haunted Spires, the prince doesn’t heed her advice, and the man who emerges from the towers isn’t the same man who entered.

The journey that follows is fraught with danger. Can a group taught to ignore and despise the lower classes survive with a mere deputy courier as their guide?

All Clear: A Novel by Connie Willis - $1.99
Conclusion of two part story.
Part 1) Blackout
Part2) All Clear
Winner of the Nebula (2010) and Hugo (2011)
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003F3FJIM

Traveling back in time, from Oxford circa 2060 into the thick of World War II, was a routine excursion for three British historians eager to study firsthand the heroism and horrors of the Dunkirk evacuation and the London Blitz. But getting marooned in war-torn 1940 England has turned Michael Davies, Merope Ward, and Polly Churchill from temporal tourists into besieged citizens struggling to survive Hitler’s devastating onslaught. And now there’s more to worry about than just getting back home: The impossibility of altering past events has always been a core belief of time-travel theory—but it may be tragically wrong. When discrepancies in the historical record begin cropping up, it suggests that one or all of the future visitors have somehow changed the past—and, ultimately, the outcome of the war. Meanwhile, in 2060 Oxford, the stranded historians’ supervisor, Mr. Dunworthy, frantically confronts the seemingly impossible task of rescuing his students—three missing needles in the haystack of history. The thrilling time-tripping adventure that began with Blackout now hurtles to its stunning resolution in All Clear.

Lamentation (The Psalms of Isaak #1) by Ken Scholes is $3 in the US (Kobo, Amazon)
First in a science fantasy series with 5 books.
Here's a short story set in that world: A Weeping Czar Beholds the Fallen Moon
Scholes also wrote about inspiration for the novel.

This remarkable first novel from award-winning short fiction writer Ken Scholes will take readers away to a new world—an Earth so far in the distant future that our time is not even a memory; a world where magick is commonplace and great areas of the planet are impassable wastes. But human nature hasn't changed through the ages: War and faith and love still move princes and nations.
In Lamentation, the first entry in the Psalm of Isaak series, an ancient weapon has completely destroyed the city of Windwir. From many miles away, Rudolfo, Lord of the Nine Forest Houses, sees the horrifying column of smoke rising. He knows that war is coming to the Named Lands.
Nearer to the Devastation, a young apprentice is the only survivor of the city—he sat waiting for his father outside the walls, and was transformed as he watched everyone he knew die in an instant.
Soon all the Kingdoms of the Named Lands will be at each others' throats, as alliances are challenged and hidden plots are uncovered.

Vampires of El Norte by Isabel Cañas is £1 in the UK (Kobo, Amazon)
KJ Charles says it's more of a historical romance and has very little vampirism.

Vampires and vaqueros face off on the Texas-Mexico border in this supernatural western from the author of The Hacienda.

Nena knows a thing or two about monsters—as the daughter of a rancher in Mexico, her home has long been threatened by tensions with Anglo settlers from the north. But something more sinister lurks near the ranch at night, something that drains men of their blood and leaves them for dead--something that once attacked Nena nine years ago.

Believing Nena dead, Néstor has been on the run from his grief ever since. He has night terrors of sharp teeth, and is haunted by the life he and Nena could have had together.

When the United States attacks Mexico, the two are thrown together on the road to war. But the shock of their reunion—and Nena’s rage at Néstor for seemingly abandoning her long ago—is quickly overshadowed by the appearance of a nightmare made flesh.

Unless Nena and Néstor work through their past and face the future together, neither will survive to see the dawn.
