Can't see any of them when I'm logged on to my account, which must mean they're not available for France.

i just grabbed 25 heyers - what fun that was to just go down the list and buy each one! i'll be picking up the couple remaining ones i don't already own in ebook format in a couple days.

the unknown ajax is still full price on amazon and books on board. since my paperback copy is falling apart, i wrote to amazon asking if the price should be $1.99 just in case. probably not, but never hurts to ask.

I'm done. 15 books for $25, I stayed with mostly lighter titles this time around. I'm hoping the sale is wildly successful for Sourcebooks and they do it again after I've worked my way through the 18 I now have in my TBR pile.

Spoiler:
These Old Shades
The Masqueraders
Devil's Cub
Regency Buck
Friday's Child
Arabella
The Quient Gentleman
Bath Tangle
Sylvester
Venetia
The Nonesuch
False Colours
Frederica
Black Sheep
Lady of Quality

Re Sylvester, this was posted on the Discounted/Price Dropped Kindle books thread:

BAJ says:
OT -- I sent an email to Sourcebooks yesterday asking about Sylvester. Received two nice emails saying it was a glitch with Amazon & they were trying to fix it. So don't give up hope yet (I want it too).

You can use ERIQ to keep track of price changes. You can import your Amazon wishlist if you want to. Just follow the instructions here:

Aw, heck, that's one I just bought.

Although I guess the real difference between $1.49 and free is nearly negligible.

Thank you thank you thank you thank you!

I was able to fill in many Heyer titles I had wanted for quite some time. I had been VERY slowly buying only a few of my most favorite titles since they were quite expensive, but now I was able to buy quite a few - and even a few more with the coupon!

Thanks again!

The Unknown Ajax is my absolute favorite of her books, and I'm sad it's not part of the sale. I'm guessing that's because the e-book version isn't "officially out" yet.

I totally laugh out loud reading the scene at the end, even though I've read it many times before!

I e-mailed both Sourcebooks and Books on Board and asked if they'd consider adding a "pre-sale" version to their Heyer birthday sale. I doubt it will happen, but as basschick says - it never hurts to ask.

Oh, but they're romance novels for people who hate romance novels (such as myself).

Very tongue in cheek - with scintillating characters and humor.

More pastiches of romance novels than actual romance novels.

Me three. I was reading some of the Amazon reviews that were saying basically the same thing, that the romances were just a framework for comedy. I really enjoyed the comedy in Footprints in the Dark. The mystery was okay and it was obvious who the "villain" was, but the humor was LOL funny. Thought I would try one of the romance titles just to see.

Also, here's another one that's supposed to be a mystery (historical), even though it's not listed as such:

Quiet Gentleman

Quote:
Less than a hero's welcome...

Returning to his family seat from Waterloo, Gervase Frant, seventh Earl of St Erth, could have expected more enthusiasm for his homecoming. His quiet cousin, stepmother, and young half-brother seem openly disappointed that he survived the wars. And when he begins to fall for his half-brother's sweetheart, his chilly reception goes from unfriendly to positively murderous.

One of Heyer's most suspenseful Regency romances, The Quiet Gentleman combines an ingenious mystery plot with her signature witty style and effervescently engaging characters.
