A Deadly Education by Naomi Novik is $3.99 on Amazon.com
Recent release. First in a series. It's about students in a deadly school of dark magic.

Quote:
I decided that Orion Lake needed to die after the second time he saved my life.

Everyone loves Orion Lake. Everyone else, that is. Far as I’m concerned, he can keep his flashy combat magic to himself. I’m not joining his pack of adoring fans.

I don’t need help surviving the Scholomance, even if they do. Forget the hordes of monsters and cursed artifacts, I’m probably the most dangerous thing in the place. Just give me a chance and I’ll level mountains and kill untold millions, make myself the dark queen of the world.

At least, that’s what the world expects. Most of the other students in here would be delighted if Orion killed me like one more evil thing that’s crawled out of the drains. Sometimes I think they want me to turn into the evil witch they assume I am. The school certainly does.

But the Scholomance isn’t getting what it wants from me. And neither is Orion Lake. I may not be anyone’s idea of the shining hero, but I’m going to make it out of this place alive, and I’m not going to slaughter thousands to do it, either.

Although I’m giving serious consideration to just one.

Ooooh, I really like her Temeraire books...

$3.99 is more than I really like to spend for fiction, but it's new and very tempting!

Evolution by Stephen Baxter is $1.99 at Amazon US.

Is it just me, or does the face in the center of the cover look like actor Michael Ironside?


Quote:
Stretching from the distant past into the remote future, from primordial Earth to the stars, Evolution is a soaring symphony of struggle, extinction, and survival; a dazzling epic that combines a dozen scientific disciplines and a cast of unforgettable characters to convey the grand drama of evolution in all its awesome majesty and rigorous beauty. Sixty-five million years ago, when dinosaurs ruled the Earth, there lived a small mammal, a proto-primate of the species Purgatorius. From this humble beginning, Baxter traces the human lineage forward through time. The adventure that unfolds is a gripping odyssey governed by chance and competition, a perilous journey to an uncertain destination along a route beset by sudden and catastrophic upheavals. It is a route that ends, for most species, in stagnation or extinction. Why should humanity escape this fate?

Axiom's End by Lindsay Ellis (known for video essays) is $2.99 on Amazon.com
A sequel is planned for 2021.
Quote:
Truth is a human right.

It’s fall 2007. A well-timed leak has revealed that the US government might have engaged in first contact. Cora Sabino is doing everything she can to avoid the whole mess, since the force driving the controversy is her whistleblower father. Even though Cora hasn’t spoken to him in years, his celebrity has caught the attention of the press, the Internet, the paparazzi, and the government—and with him in hiding, that attention is on her. She neither knows nor cares whether her father’s leaks are a hoax, and wants nothing to do with him—until she learns just how deeply entrenched her family is in the cover-up, and that an extraterrestrial presence has been on Earth for decades.

Realizing the extent to which both she and the public have been lied to, she sets out to gather as much information as she can, and finds that the best way for her to uncover the truth is not as a whistleblower, but as an intermediary. The alien presence has been completely uncommunicative until she convinces one of them that she can act as their interpreter, becoming the first and only human vessel of communication. Their otherworldly connection will change everything she thought she knew about being human—and could unleash a force more sinister than she ever imagined.

Thanks! I don't tend to listen to many podcasts (too busy reading, you know ), but when pointed in the right direction, I enjoy them...

There are a number of discounted omnibus ebundles from Tor Books available for $2.99 at some of the usual US suspects. I recall some being mentioned here previously, but I don't believe all.

Some examples:
The Adventures of Arabella Ashby, David D. Levine (confirmed also at Kobo US)
The Strangely Beautiful Saga, Leanna Renee Hieber
The Dragon Corsairs, Margaret Weis & Robert Krammes
Yesterday's Kin Trilogy, Nancy Kress
Breaker of Empires, Richard Baker

All told there are maybe ten of these, so if someone who's better at the search-engine-fu than me knows how to assemble a good search string, it may be worthwhile.

Interesting.... What did you use for the research ? I mean, how do you got these titles, just to start with ?

Thanks.

I've read Levine's first Arabella book and would like to get around to the others. The bundle popped up on an Amazon also-bought for another title, and one of the other bundles appeared too. That got me curious enough to dig a bit.

Here are a few more discounted Tor eBundles. They've been $2.99 for a while now.

The Amberlough Dossier: https://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B08BKLTKC3/
The Ascendant Trilogy: https://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B08CT6SHF3/

The first one is a fantasy mirroring the rise and fall of Nazism, with a focus on characters in the Weimar Berlin nightlife.
The second is an epic fantasy with a queer romance. Has been criticized for its representation of East Asian cultures.
