Stories to Captivate the Imagination: Welcome to the worlds of Saladin Ahmed

A medieval physician asked to do the impossible. A gun slinging Muslim wizard in the old West. A disgruntled super villain pining for prison reform. A cybernetic soldier who might or might not be receiving messages from God. Prepare yourself to be transported to new and fantastical worlds.

The short stories in this collection have been nominated for the Nebula and Campbell awards. They've been reprinted in The Year's Best Fantasy and other anthologies, recorded for numerous podcasts, and translated into several foreign languages. Now they are collected in one place for the first time. Experience for yourself the original voice of one of fantasy's rising stars!

Blood Song - Anthony Ryan
Wool - Hugh Howey
Theft of Swords - Michael J Sullivan
Queen of the Tearling - Erika Johansen
and others.

I did check the Kevin Hearne on Kobo yesterday, and it was discounted, so I expect all the trad pub books are discounted everywhere.
Some minor misinformation here: Blood Song is the Daily Deal not part of this sale. Sorry.

If these short stories are anything like his novel, prepare yourself for lots of people sitting around, drinking coffee and complaining.

The Lyra Novels Omnibus by Patricia C. Wrede (Shadow Magic, Daughter of Witches, The Harp of Imach Thyssel, Caught in Crystal, and The Raven Ring) is $3.99 today in the US as one of Open Road Publishings daily deals.

Note this is the price for the omnibus, the individual novels are not discounted

https://www.amazon.com/Lyra-Novels-D.../dp/B0092G1BOC
https://store.kobobooks.com/en-us/bo...w&PageNumber=1

From a New York Times bestselling author: Dive into five breathtaking fantasies set in the enchanting world of Lyra — a land of intrigue, magic, and adventure! The “charm, humor, and intelligence of Wrede’s writing will continue to enthrall” (Publishers Weekly).

Not quite the price we get in Europe. It is $27 with Amazon and $30 (actually 27€) with Kobo, for the omnibus.

European price for individual novels is $8.35 for Amazon and 9.17 € with Kobo.

Not that it makes much difference to me, since I do not buy ebooks with DRM.

Do you have the same prices in the USA for the individual novels?

I have never seen an Open Road deal that applies outside the US (and Canada?)

It's a shame, because they have some good stuff in their line-up, and typically have high standard prices. At least they were couponable at Kobo, back when Kobo still did coupons.

The book The Inner Circle (Comet Clement series, #1), by Kevin George, is available for free from Amazon.

I just searched Google with : The Inner Circle Kevin George to find whether this book is available in some other format (epub) elsewhere.

One answer was: [url to pirate-site removed by moderator]

So, considering the domain name of this URL, this seems to be made available by Google. But the page looks a bit suspicious to me.

Can anyone comment on this page?

Looks like the files themselves are stored at filez.com, which seems suspect. Plus, the bad grammar, etc., all makes this look like it's a pirate site.

I know that Google has some services, like Google Docs, that can be used to save and share data. I don't use Google for that, but I wonder if this might be something like that.

It's absolutely pirated. It's hosted on a Google service called Fusion Tables intended for data visualization. So this is something an individual put up, abusing the Fusion Tables service.

Thanks for the Amazon link on this.

Edit: Holy crap, that's a 12 book series!

Ah, I keep forgetting to check if books are self-published. They do seem to be self-published. I haven't read them myself but plan to later this year. Some of the reviews are poor but overall the books land on 4 out of 5 stars both on Amazon and Goodreads.

Anyway if they are any good I can repost them when I have read them... if they are still discounted.
