I HIGHLY advise one to use a bogus email with this promotional package, or you will be inundated with seemingly endless promotional smegma from these authors. I know: I was STUPID. Let me repeat that in case someone didn't quite get it: I was STUPID. |

Bargain @ 99 cents (DRM-free, VIP-eligible @ Kobo CA) from the author's own self-pub reprint imprint (probably matched in most other stores):
The Bohr Maker by Locus & Nebula Award-winning author Linda Nagata (ISFDB, Wikipedia), 1st in her Nanotech Succession series of transhumanist science fiction novels about individuals altered by nanotech and their ensuing societies. This was originally published in 1995 by Bantam Spectra, and happens to be the one which won her the Locus Best First Novel Award for that year. NB: There's a 4-book omnibus containing all the novels at a discount, but this is cheap enough to try out to see if you like the 1st before making a further investment when the good couponage shows up, if you're not already familiar with the series. I don't think I've read this one, but I'm pretty sure I read another similar-premised novel of hers many years ago and enjoyed it (although I can't remember which one and none of the synopses for her reprints seems to quite fit, so maybe it was another author with a similar name). An award-winning novel of nanotechnology, adventure, and high-tech revolution. Nikko is the first "post human" genetically engineered to survive in the airless void of space. But the research permit that allows his existence is about to expire. His body has begun an insidious, pre-programmed failure that will end in his death—unless he can cancel his own expiration date. His hopes ride on an illegal and extremely powerful nanotech device known as the Bohr Maker—but his attempt to steal it soon goes awry. The device escapes to infect a young woman named Phousita who lives on Earth, in an impoverished slum, where nanotechnology runs amok, regulated only by the black market. Nikko and Phousita are from different worlds, but their convergence sets off a domino effect of unforeseeable events that threaten to change the definition of "human" for all time. A brilliantly original, fast-paced biotech thriller, The Bohr Maker won the Locus Award for Best First Novel. The Nanotech Succession is a collection of stand-alone novels exploring the rise of nanotechnology and the strange and fascinating future that follows. |

I enjoyed The Bohr Maker enough to buy the rest of the series.

Open Road Media F/SF flash sale
All of these are on sale today at Amazon and Google only, but if you're willing to price match at Kobo (for store credit), the effective price is 10% less than the Amazon/Google price.
Brian Aldiss: Helliconia Trilogy $0.99 Amazon Google Kobo ($15.49 before PM) Patricia Wrede: The Lyra Novels $1.99 Amazon Google Kobo ($23.99 before PM) Robin McKinley: Beauty $0.99 Amazon Google Kobo ($6.29 before PM) Robin McKinley: Rose Daughter $0.99 Amazon Google Kobo ($7.19 before PM) Some of the Lyra novels were free back in December during the Open Road freebies sale, and Beauty is one of the $15 books in the current Humble Bundle Women in SF sale. Beauty is one of the few that I didn't have from the Humble Bundle sale, so I'm going to get it at Kobo instead. |

In all honesty, I never bother with alternate email addresses. I just set up folders and subfolders and route the junk mail there. Sometimes I look through the headings, just in case there's something interesting, but most of the time I just delete the contents,

Malice (#1 in The Faithful and the Fallen) is 2.99$ at amazon.
The world is broken... Corban wants nothing more than to be a warrior under King Brenin's rule - to protect and serve. But that day will come all too soon. And the price he pays will be in blood. Evnis has sacrificed - too much it seems. But what he wants - the power to rule -- will soon be in his grasp. And nothing will stop him once he has started on his path. Veradis is the newest member of the warband for the High Prince, Nathair. He is one of the most skilled swordsman to come out of his homeland, yet he is always under the shadow of his older brother. Nathair has ideas - and a lot of plans. Many of them don't involve his father, the High King Aquilus. Nor does he agree with his father's idea to summon his fellow kings to council. The Banished Lands has a violent past where armies of men and giants clashed in battle, but now giants are seen, the stones weep blood and giant wyrms are stirring. Those who can still read the signs see a threat far greater than the ancient wars. For if the Black Sun gains ascendancy, mankind's hopes and dreams will fall to dust... ...and it can never be made whole again. |
