I would love to have that Amazon UK deal here in the US. That is a very nice price for those Void books.

I did buy them, but I don't do anything with my kindle books other than let them download themselves to my kindle, so I don't know. If I remember, I'll try to check later.

To Marry Medusa by Theodore Sturgeon is $1.99 at Amazon US
This is the Open Road Media edition. Drunk, angry, abusive, and pathetic, Dan Gurlick exists at the very lowest level of human civilization, sleeping in junkyard cars and scrounging through garbage cans for his dinner. But his last rotting meal contains something unexpected: a spore that originated from a galaxy many light-years away. First, Dan eats the spore, then, the spore eats Dan; and the homeless alcoholic becomes a host for the Medusa. An insatiable alien hive mind, the Medusa has already consumed the life forms of a billion planets. Now, it hungers for the dominant species of Earth. This ebook features an illustrated biography of Theodore Sturgeon including rare images and never-before-seen documents from the University of Kansas’s Kenneth Spencer Research Library and the author’s estate, among other sources. |

And it may or may not work for you. My new/separate made Amazon UK account got flagged the first time I bought a UK Kindle book and I was sent a note asking me to verify my UK residence.

Fancy Free by Pam Uphoff
An SF Author I follow because all her books are fun. I recommend this one. In the last parts of the Twenty-first century, AI, Artificial Intelligence is commonplace. Highly able computers, and nothing more . . . until some rare and as yet unidentified trigger creates an actual personality. Artificial Personalities, APs or hals, are illegal. Destroyed upon discovery. Even Beowulf, the AP the government controls, and uses to hunt down emerging hals, isn't legally recognized, has no right to existence. So you'd think that when the Special Grid Security Unit started paying extra attention to the area where a certain cooking show operates, Fancy Farmer—the AP who runs the show—would be concerned. But Fancy has a bigger problem. She's been stolen. http://www.amazon.com/Fancy-Free-Pam...dp/B00L4MRYE8/ http://www.amazon.co.uk/Fancy-Free-P...dp/B00L4MRYE8/ http://www.amazon.ca/Fancy-Free-Pam-...dp/B00L4MRYE8/ |

Eva García Sáenz, Longevo Series
If anybody is interested, the second book of the series A Saga of the Ancient Family, followup from The Immortal Collection is apparently on sale at $0.99 from $14.99
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...?ie=UTF8&psc=1 The first book is still $1.99. Nice to read, a fresh view at immortals or very long lived people, from a Spanish point of view. |

X-link to the Kids/YA megathread because British author Gwyneth Jones (ISFDB, Wikipedia) is a multiple World Fantasy Award and also Arthur C. Clarke & James Tiptree, Jr. & Philip K. Dick Award winner, as well as one of my early childhood sf/f reading influences because the school library had some of her old YA fantasies (not these particular titles, though):
Free from the author via KDP Select @ Amazon: 2 tween/YA fantasy/supernatural adventure/suspense thrillers written under her "Ann Halam" pseudonym, both originally out from Orion Books Last edited by ATDrake; 10-18-2014 at 01:51 PM. Reason: Slightly better description, since these don't just have "elements" but are sfnal in nature. |

[QUOTE=Little.Egret;2951080]Fancy Free by Pam Uphoff
An SF Author I follow because all her books are fun. QUOTE] Thanks for the suggestion, Little Egret! I had a couple of these saved from 'way back', not sure if I'd ever get around to reading them: and I surely would have missed the ones offered lately. I appreciate the recommendation, and intend to move them up my list! KentE |
