And now the 9th title in this series, Malice at the Palace, has dropped to $1.99 at Kindle and Kobo US. I note from the blurb that Lady Georgie is now 35th in line, not 34th - her brother must have had another kid

There are 4 pages of mystery & thrillers (58 titles) in the Amazon.co.uk Last Minute deals today:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/b/ref=s9_ac...d_i=5400977031 Too many to list individually, but I did notice some Ed McBain 87th Precinct titles. Most (if not all) are 99p. |

The Legacy is the first in the Children's House (Freyja and Huldar) series by Yrsa Sigurdardottir. Per SYKM, its original title seems to have been DNA, which really didn't need translation, I think, but... SYKM indicates this title won't be out in the US until Feb, 2018, but in the UK, it's already out and on sale for £0.99 at Kindle UK. I've enjoyed the author's Thóra Gudmundsdottir series, and look forward to trying this one.

Medicus, apa Medicus and the Disappearing Dancing Girls, apa Ruso and the Disappearing Dancing Girls, both better titles than just Medicus IMO, is the first title in Ruth Downie's enjoyable (again IMO) historical Ruso/Tilla series set mostly in Roman Britain. It goes up and down in price a bit, but rarely as low as $0.99, which is what it is priced right now at both Kindle and Kobo US. If you have wanted to try this series and like to read in order, this would be a good time to grab this one...

A Legacy of Spies by John le Carré is the most recent (2017) after a long long gap in the George Smiley series - although from what I've read in a review, it features a younger main protagonist, Peter Guillam. It has dropped to $4.99 at Kindle Canada as part of their 11th day of Christmas, so almost certainly for today only. You need to make sure you are in the Kobo Canada store before the link/pricing will work.

Three titles in the Captain Rawson series by Edward Marston have dropped to £1.90 at Kindle UK. From the blurbs, this looks to be almost as much a military fiction series as a mystery/thriller series, but SYKM does list it, so I'm posting it here. (I am actually quite hopeful my son might like this, as it seems to be sort of similar to the Cornwell/Sharpe series and even a little bit to the Scarrow/Cato & Macro series in that there seems to be a little bit of mystery and a lot of battle in them...)
Anyway, titles on sale are:
Note: The first title in the series, Soldier of Fortune, is available free to read via KU in the UK, if you have that, or it's £2.48 in the UK and $3.03 in the US, not too horrible prices, if you want to try the series in order...
