X-link to the DRM-free thread for some new bundles of sfnal interest:

StoryBundle's Leading Ladies Fantasy contains novels and story collections starring female lead characters, by mostly indie authors. There's a freebie if you're a newsletter subscriber. And their Military Horror bundle expires soon.

Also, some RPG gamebook bundles from Humble Bundle for the popular Pathfinder fantasy setting, and from Bundle of Holding for the tie-ins to the Buffy: the Vampire Slayer and Angel: the Series TV shows.

An omnibus of Annie Bellet's first three Twenty-Sided Sorceress books, Justice Calling, Murder of Crows, and Pack of Lies, is free at Amazon US and Kobo at the moment. (Or you could pick up the first one free and 99¢ for the other two individually - check your libraries if needed.)

Bellet self-publishes these electronically, with enough success that Saga picked up the physical rights and has been printing omnibus editions. I've read the first one; I wasn't blown away, but I found some elements interesting enough to make a note to keep an eye out for sales. My main quibble was that these are short books, maybe novellas, and I was dubious of the regular price point for the length. Free works.

These are urban fantasy, and there appears to be a love interest, but on a scale from 0 = "love triangles for the win" to 10 = "no love cooties," the first was probably about a 4 or 5, I'd say - it's an element but not a focus.

Quote:
Book One- Justice Calling:

Jade Crow lives a quiet life running her comic book and game store in Wylde, Idaho. After twenty-five years fleeing from a powerful sorcerer who wants to eat her heart and take her powers, quiet suits her just fine. Surrounded by friends who are even less human than she is, Jade figures she’s finally safe.

As long as she doesn’t use her magic.

When dark powers threaten her friends’ lives, a sexy shape-shifter enforcer shows up. He’s the shifter world’s judge, jury, and executioner rolled into one, and he thinks Jade is to blame. To clear her name, save her friends, and stop the villain, she’ll have to use her wits… and her sorceress powers.

Except Jade knows that as soon as she does, a far deadlier nemesis awaits.

An Alphabet of Embers - diverse SFF anthology

https://gumroad.com/l/alphabetofembers

Quote:
An Alphabet of Embers is an anthology of unclassifiables – lyrical, surreal, magical, experimental pieces that straddle the border between poetry and prose. It lives in a place between darkness and sound, between roads and breaths, its pages taut with starlight; between its covers, words talk to each other, and have an occasional cup of tea.

Also, their The Best American Science Fiction and Fantasy 2015 collection edited by John Joseph Adams & Joe Hill is the same price.
