Today's big deal in the UK looks to be all of the 21 books in Dana Stabenow's Kate Shugak series, at £0.99 each, unfortunately only for a few more hours, because I was busy earlier today, and didn't get a chance to look until now...

I used to be very fond of this series, but got sort of mad at Stabenow about the next to last book in the series, Bad Blood, which she finished with an unpardonable (at least to me) cliff-hanger, and then went off and wrote three books in another series, before coming back to the Shugak series. So, I objected both to the cliff-hanger, and then to her going radio-silent for a couple of years on top of it all. And, I wasn't super fond of the way that the latest book addressed the outstanding issues either. (I'm trying to avoid spoilers...) So the jury is out for me on the last couple of books in the series, but I still really like the earlier titles, and at £0.99, they are great bargains. Obviously YMMV...

A bunch of interesting (to me, at least) price drops on mysteries at Kindle UK, all at £0.99 unless otherwise indicated. Most/all of these are probably from the new monthly sale for November, but if you really want one, don't count on it, go ahead and buy - I haven't verified any of these as part of the sale. Many have been on sale before, so check carefully before you buy...

I see that today is the birthday of Erik Spoelstra, who is the coach of the Miami Heat basketball team.

I recalled that last name, and sure enough his father posted here in 2010!
