Yes I know that & I read it too but it doesn't make it any less disappointing when you miss out on the offer that others got by days or hours.

I found I was able to use the HungerGamesDeal offer code for all 3 individual books in the UK kobo store. Had to wait about 20 minutes before could reuse the code on each sequel, so got them all within an hour. Maybe worth trying it that way instead of once per day incase they expire!

The offer does expire tomorrow (if not before). Looks like ONLY HungerGamesDeal is still an active code and it doesn't work on the complete trilogy (I suspect the most recent poster above meant he bought all three individual books).

Yeah as I mentioned on the previous page you do not have to wait a day. So if someone is just coming in here. Wait a short time between ordering them. Doesnt have to be a whole day.

I agree that the version available through Kobo has some poor styling, but it's fixable in about two minutes by editing the ePub through Sigil. If I have time this weekend, I'll post a couple of the fixes here.

Earlier today I tried waiting 20 - 30 minutes in between orders, but it didn't work. I finally got them all by signing out, creating a "new" account each time (using a new email but all other info the same), and ordering with that, using the "hungergamesdeal" code.

I'm curious - which book and is that the UK or US version?

I was pretty happy with the UK version of The Hunger Games. Nothing annoyed me fortmatting-wise, and there were a couple of minor issues in the text (a few obvious missed paragraph breaks, a typo with "there' ll" instead of "there'll" and a couple of "mocking jay" when the rest of the book has "mockingjay").

I've just started Catching Fire last night, and there's nothing that jumped out at me in the first couple of chapters.

Cheers,
Simon.

When I got the books earlier in the week I found and used these codes.

1st book
hungergamesdeal

2nd book
hungergamesdeal2

3rd book
hungergamesdeal3

all three codes worked for me
