Yeah, I grabbed them then too. Great deal. I recall wondering if the deal was legit. Long story short... it was.

Well, for those of us who missed it back then...

The first two in the series are now £1.99 each at Kindle UK, possibly as part of the UK monthly deal ???, but not sure, so I'd grab them now if you want them...

Isle of the Dead / Eye of Cat by Roger Zelazny is on sale for $1.99

Isle of the Dead/Eye of Cat, the posthumously released volume of two earlier novels by Roger Zelazny, the Hugo and Nebula award-winning author of the Chronicles of Amber series, pairs the witty 1969 Isle with the elegant 1982 Cat. The first is a tale of a supernatural battle of good vs. evil centuries into the future, while in the second, a former alien hunter, in exchange for the help of an alien he long ago captured, must agree to a new hunt with the roles reversed.

Warrior by Marie Brennan is $2 on Amazon.com
First in the Doppleganger duology.

Two women. One soul.

Mirage wasn't supposed to exist. Born from the ritual that gives the witches of Starfall their power, she should have been destroyed. Instead she survived, and grew up to become one of the most lethal Hunters the land has ever seen.

Miryo wasn't supposed to fail. But when her initiation at Starfall goes awry, she realizes her double is still alive. Now she must hunt down Mirage and put an end to something that should never have begun.

But how can a witch kill the perfect warrior, when her own magic is trying to kill her?

The Book of Hidden Things by Francesco Dimitri is $2 on Amazon.com
Warning: The focus here is not on the fantastical.

An enthralling and seductive fantasy following four old friends and the secrets they keep.

Four old school friends have a pact: to meet up every year in the small town in Puglia they grew up in. Art, the charismatic leader of the group and creator of the pact, insists that the agreement must remain unshakable and enduring. But this year, he never shows up.

A visit to his house increases the friends' worry; Art is farming marijuana. In Southern Italy doing that kind of thing can be very dangerous. They can't go to the Carabinieri so must make enquiries of their own. This is how they come across the rumours about Art; bizarre and unbelievable rumours that he miraculously cured the local mafia boss's daughter of terminal leukaemia. And among the chaos of his house, they find a document written by Art, The Book of Hidden Things, that promises to reveal dark secrets and wonders beyond anything previously known.

Summerland by Michael Chabon is $3 on Amazon.com

Blends fantasy and folklore with that most American coming-of-age ritual: baseball.

Ethan Feld is having a terrible summer: his father has moved them to Clam Island, Washington, where Ethan has quickly established himself as the least gifted baseball player the island has ever seen. Ethan’s luck begins to change, however, when a mysterious baseball scout named Ringfinger Brown and a seven-hundred-and-sixty-five-year-old werefox enter his life, dragging Ethan into another world called the Summerlands. But this beautiful, winter-less place is facing destruction at the hands of the villainous Coyote, and it has been prophesized that only Ethan can save it.

Fugitive Telemetry (Murderbot) by Martha Wells is $3 on Amazon.com
(Published after the novel, but set before it, so if you read the first four novellas, you can read this)

Brasyl by Ian McDonald is $2 on Amazon.com

Be seduced, amazed, and shocked by one of the world’s greatest and strangest nations. Past, present, and future Brazil, with all its color, passion, and shifting realities, come together in a novel that is part SF, part history, part mystery, and entirely enthralling.

Three characters, three time periods, three stories that bind together.

Sao Paulo 2031: Edson is a self-made talent impresario one step up from the slums. A chance encounter draws him into the dangerous world of illegal quantum computing, but where can you run in a total surveillance society where every move, face, and centavo is constantly tracked?

Rio 2006: Marcelina is an ambitious Rio TV producer looking for that big reality TV hit to make her name. When her hot idea sets her on the track of a disgraced World Cup soccer goalkeeper, she becomes enmeshed in an ancient conspiracy that threatens not just her life, but her very soul.

The Amazon 1732: Father Luis is a Jesuit missionary sent into the maelstrom of 18th-century Brazil to locate and punish a rogue priest who has strayed beyond the articles of his faith and set up a vast empire in the hinterland. In the company of a French geographer and spy, what he finds in the backwaters of the Amazon tries both his faith and the nature of reality itself to the breaking point.

Three characters, three stories, three Brazils, linked across time, space, and reality in a hugely ambitious story that will challenge the way you think about everything.

I highly, highly recommend the Murderbot novellas and novel. They're great!

I read and loved an ARC of Fugitive Telemetry, and having missed it when @salty-horse posted the sale before, I'm really happy to see that it's now $2.99 again at Kindle US. @salty-horse's link below is still good.

And if you want to read my review, it's on my blog (see URL in my signature below)...

I've been listening to the Murderbot audiobooks during morning walks lately. I agree they are fun... if a bit pricey when not on sale. TOR or someone gave them away at some point, though I missed one somehow. Currently on Network Effect, Fugitive Telemetry is next.

[salty-horse]

I don't think I posted this sale before. This is the first time Fugitive Telemetry is discounted in the US.

The third and most recent novel in Scott Lynch's Gentleman Bastard series is a 99p Daily Deal today in the UK. Lowest price to date.

Love to try the Murderbot stories but they're far too expensive over here in the UK. No way I'm paying £6-7 for a single novella.

Just when they thought they were out…

TwiceFar station is at the edge of the known universe, and that’s just how Niko Larson, former Admiral in the Grand Military of the Hive Mind, likes it.

Retired and finally free of the continual war of conquest, Niko and the remnants of her former unit are content to spend the rest of their days working at the restaurant they built together, The Last Chance.

But, some wars can’t ever be escaped, and unlike the Hive Mind, some enemies aren’t content to let old soldiers go.
