I'm no longer eligible for any of these offers; I've used them all. At the end of the month, I'll cancel LivingSocial and wait for the next round of new offers. |

Thanks. I've already done Groupon, but I'll give LivingSocial a try once I cancel my current plan.

$6.48 WS Deal on Very Highly Rated Book Advocating the Use of Nuclear Energy.
If this book goes up in price in the next few hours, I'm going to be perturbed. It's been marked down for I'm sure a week or more. I kept a tab for the book open in my web browser, should I "need" something to post.
I've decided to post it as a Whispersync deal. With the ebook portion marked down to only $1.99 right now, the deal is only $6.48. That's "only" 57% off of the price of the audio alone at Audible, but that is an exceptionally low regular price, if you ask me. Too, don't forget that you get the ebook thrown in with the deal (more and more I see the advantages of having both around, if at all possible). Well, you can see all of the good things about the Whispersync deal, below. It's got all of the requisite characteristics--low price, high reviews, etc., etc. FYI--the book was copyrighted, and published, prior to Japan's Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster in 2011. Title: Atomic Awakening: A New Look at the History and Future of Nuclear Power. Genre: Non-Fiction (Science). Author(s): James Mahaffey. Price: $6.48 ($1.99 ebook (marked down) + $4.49 Whispersync audio). Regular Price of Audio, by Itself, at Audible: $14.95 (1 credit). Ebook Rating/Number of Reviews: 4.7 stars/55 reviews (Amazon). Audio Rating/Number of Ratings: 4.5/95 ratings. Pages/Audio Length: 369/11 hours and 44 minutes. Narrator(s): John McLain. Audible URL: http://www.audible.com/pd/Science-Te...ok/B00F68KD58/. Amazon URL (you can get the whole Whispersync deal here): https://www.amazon.com/Atomic-Awaken.../dp/B004GUS68I. Comments: #1 seller in one Kindle store category. Book Description (Amazon): The American public's introduction to nuclear technology was manifested in destruction and death. With Hiroshima and the Cold War still ringing in our ears, our perception of all things nuclear is seen through the lens of weapons development. Nuclear power is full of mind-bending theories, deep secrets, and the misdirection of public consciousness, some deliberate, some accidental. The result of this fixation on bombs and fallout is that the development of a non-polluting, renewable energy source stands frozen in time. Outlining nuclear energy's discovery and applications throughout history, Mahaffey's brilliant and accessible book is essential to understanding the astounding phenomenon of nuclear power in an age where renewable energy and climate change have become the defining concerns of the twenty-first century.

Trevor Noah's new book: Born a Crime: Stories from a South African Childhood is free with the promo code ACRIME1. It expires on 1/31/2017
P.S: I can't seem to get it to work on the promo section, a workaround: I add the book on my cart and click on the promotional code. After that I remove the original version. |

A ton of books are free from Open Road Media. I do not know how long the promotion will last so grab them while you can. The reason I am posting this here is there are a lot of titles you can grab the audiobook for cheap if you grab the free book. I have looked through the first few pages and I have gotten at least 10 books that I am going to think about getting the audiobook. I am behind stoked.

While Amazon has never officially welcomed in the new month (unless you count the days of Christmas sales
![]()
As usual, this should last a month but Amazon's calendars almost never work right. If you want one (or all) don't delay. Enjoy! skinmaan Your audiobook bloodhound Last edited by skinmaan; 12-16-2016 at 07:05 PM. |
