Moonseed by Stephen Baxter is $3.99 at Amazon US. This is billed as the third in the NASA trilogy. But the books (Voyage, Titan and Moonseed) are all unrelated stand-alones with different characters and different realities. The only link they have is they deal with Baxter's disappointment of the state of space exploration.
And now all three are on sale for $3.99 each. I think Titan was the first Baxter book I ever read. Highly recommend him, most especially if you're a fan of the type of hard sci-fi Arthur C. Clarke used to write.

Voyage
Quote:
The space mission of a lifetime

An epic saga of America's might-have-been, Voyage is a powerful, sweeping novel of how, if President Kennedy had lived, we could have sent a manned mission to Mars in the 1980s. Imaginatively created from the true lives and real events, Voyage returns to the geniuses of NASA and the excitement of the Saturn rocket, and includes historical figures from Neil Armstrong to Ronald Reagan who are interwoven with unforgettable characters whose dreams mirror the promise of a young space program that held the world in thrall. There is: Dana, the Nazi camp survivor who achieves the dream of his hated masters; Gershon, the Vietnam fighter jock determined to be the first African-American to land on another planet; and Natalie York, the brilliant geologist/astronaut who risks a career and love for the chance to run her fingers through the soil of another world.
Titan
Quote:
Humankind's greatest--and last--adventure!

Possible signs of organic life have been found on Titan, Saturn's largest moon. A group of visionaries led by NASA's Paula Benacerraf plan a daring one-way mission that will cost them everything. Taking nearly a decade, the billion-mile voyage includes a "slingshot" transit of Venus, a catastrophic solar storm, and a constant struggle to keep the ship and crew functioning. But it is on the icy surface of Titan itself that the true adventure begins. In the orange methane slush the astronauts will discover the secret of life's origins and reach for a human destiny beyond their wildest dreams.
Moonseed
Quote:
It Eats Planets. And It's Here.

It starts when Venus explodes into a brilliant cloud of dust and debris, showering Earth with radiation and bizarre particles that wipe out all the crops and half the life in the oceans, and fry the ozone layer. Days later, a few specks of moon rock kicked up from the last Apollo mission fall upon a lava crag in Scotland. That's all it takes...

Suddenly, the ground itself begins melting into pools of dust that grow larger every day. For what has demolished Venus, and now threatens Earth itself, is part machine, part life-form: a nano-virus, dubbed Moonseed, that attacks planets.

Four scientists are all that stand between Moonseed and Earth's extinction, four brilliant minds that must race to cut off the virus and save what's left of Earth--a pulse-stopping battle for discovery that will lead them from the Earth's inner core to a daredevil Moon voyage that could save, or damn, us all.

Wow! Good sale. I got the latest two Dresden Files and might get the other series.

I'll believe it's the last one when I stop seeing Shannara books. Not that I really care. If he likes writing about it and fans like reading it, what's the harm?

But watch in the next year or so when the books covering previously hidden bits of Shannara's history start rolling out.

I apologize if I implicitly stated that the books were from her, there are maybe a few stories from her in these books. Nonetheless they may make a nice reading for somebody.
Have a read here.

Remember the dwarf smith that fixed the broken wagon wheel in the fifteenth book? Expect a trilogy about him starting 2024.

That Jim Butcher sale (which I am so, so happy I haven't missed) is frickin' amazing! You can even pre-order Battle Ground, Dresden Files book #17, at the sale price of $2.99 CDN!

I am pretty sure I looked for these books in the past, so I do not know what has changed recently.

These are the links on Kobo US.

The only one which costs .99 € is
Marion Zimmer Bradley's Darkover (Darkover anthology Book 11)
https://www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/mar...y-s-darkover-1

Generically you can search for "Darkover Anthology".

Enjoy
Oh. My. Gods. I could be driven to buy a Kobo for this!
