Here are links to Kobo and Amazon.

Kobo has a new month-long offer up for 3 for the price of 2 on assorted sf/fantasy (includes some paranormal romance & YA, clearly marked into their own subcategories), with separate pages and selections for Canada & the US.

It's actually a pretty good sale, with stuff from HarperCollins that doesn't get discounted very often and backlist publishers like Jabberwocky Literary Agency (who are offering some of Tanya Huff's old DAW books), and apparently an entire section of L. Ron Hubbard if you're feeling really nostalgic.

In Canada, there's some Tolkien in it (both The Silmarillion and his more obscure non-Middle-Earth stuff), which is not offered as part of the Buy 2 Get 1 Free sale in the US since apparently Houghton Mifflin Harcourt has the rights to it there instead of HarperCollins.

Linkage for the respective country-specific dedicated sale pages: Canada & US

Also, French publisher Bragelonne's featured sale author of the month is Australian multiple Aurealis Award-winning fantasy author Trudi Canavan (ISFDB, Wikipedia), with all her works in translation priced at just $4.99 CAD at Kobo Canada (presumably matched in the other CA stores which carry francophone books), and should also available in France and whatever other countries also sell Bragelonne ebooks, which are DRM-free from Kobo at least, by the way.

Linkage to the dedicated page if you're interested: Tout Trudi Canavan maître du fantasy à 4,99$ ch. en juin

Does it show the romance categories in Canada? Because it doesn't in the US. Three of the four I see on the page are romance. This is why I don't even bother to look at the books Kobo puts on sale anymore - they are usually an over abundance of romance.

Canada has: Otherworldly science fiction, Fantastical fantasy, Paranormal Romance, Classics and must-reads from L. Ron Hubbard (this includes some Writers of the Future anthologies with the stories from the new author contest winners), Science fiction for young adults, Fantasy for young adults

As far as I recall from my earlier page-through the first two sections, there was no noticeable paranormal romance filed into the 8 or so pages of each in the sale.

I already have Superheroes Anonymous, which is good (IMO, of course), as is The Diabolical Miss Hyde.

The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet has been on my wish list for a while, so I thank you for this opportunity to get it for free.

Dngrsone:

Please accept my apologies. I accidentally deleted your post, after I discovered that I meant to thank the original poster for the Harper Voyage titles.

Again, my apologies for this mistake.

That's 10 new ones. (The other 5 were repeats that I obtained the last time.)

THANK YOU!

One I had from last time, two already 'sold' out, the rest...

The ebooks come attached to an email, so you need a valid email address.

Quite a few of them are showing as having run out, but as I recall, they restocked the giveaway at least once last time. I'm pretty sure I got some of them that people had reported as out of stock after those reports. So might want to leave the page up in a tab and check again periodically.

Thanks for the post apesmom!

No worries. I've moderated and administered a few sites myself, I know how tough a job it can be, particularly considering the pay (none).

The Jack Campbell Lost Fleet stuff seems to be on sale again in an Amazon Big Deal in the UK.

I still haven't read Dauntless. I bought it about five sales ago.

I quite enjoyed reading them until it became clear that all the space stuff didn't make sense not because I wasn't understanding it, but because the author was translating sea-going vessel supply and manoeuvring problems DIRECTLY to space ships.

For instance, did you know it's more fuel efficient in space to reverse course by executing a long curving flight path rather than just thrusting in the opposite direction? No, neither did I. Because it isn't. Yet that is a major aspect of his space battles. I waited a long time for some explanation of this, but there never is one. He's just wrong.

If that sort of stuff won't bother you, I can recommend the books. It got too much for me.
