Fantasy - sword and sorcery. First 3 books of series. If you didn't buy it last July, it's a buck cheaper now. I read the first 4 books when they first came out - loved series. Lots of top notch authors.

Scifi - Space Opera - I don't know this author but it looked interesting.

Flowers for Algernon by Daniel Keyes $2.99

https://www.amazon.com/Flowers-Alger.../dp/B003WJQ74E


Winner of both the Hugo and Nebula Awards, the powerful, classic story about a man who receives an operation that turns him into a genius...and introduces him to heartache.
*
Charlie Gordon is about to embark upon an unprecedented journey. Born with an unusually low IQ, he has been chosen as the perfect subject for an experimental r surgery that researchers hope will increase his intelligence-a procedure that has already been highly successful when tested on a lab mouse named Algernon.

As the treatment takes effect, Charlie's intelligenc e expands until it surpasses that of the doctors who engineered his metamorphosis. The experiment appears to be a scientific breakthrough of paramount importance, until Algernon suddenly deteriorates. Will the same happen to Charlie?

I've read a couple of other titles by Julie Kagawa and liked them, and now here is an omnibus with the first four (of five) titles in her Talon Saga series on sale for $2.99 at Kindle and Kobo US. The titles include:
  • Talon
  • Rogue
  • Soldier
  • Legion
Kindle US: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B079K3H84Q
Kindle US/Smile: https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B079K3H84Q
Kobo US: https://www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/the...-saga-volume-1

Spoiler:
Quote:
Immerse yourself within the pages of the gripping Talon Saga by New York Times bestselling author Julie Kagawa. Dragons walk among us in human form…but soon the secretive Talon organization will make its move to fly from the shadows and take over the world, in this fiery young adult fantasy series perfect for fans of Marie Liu, Cassandra Clare and Gena Showalter!

TALON

To take her rightful place in the Talon organization, young dragon Ember Hill must prove she can hide her true nature and blend in with humans. Her delight at the prospect of a summer of “normal” teen experiences is short-lived, however, once she discovers that she’s also expected to train for her destined career in Talon. But a chance meeting with a rogue dragon will soon challenge everything Ember has been taught.

ROGUE

Ember Hill left the dragon organization Talon to take her chances with rebel dragon Cobalt and his crew of rogues. But she can’t forget Garret, the soldier of the dragonslaying Order of St. George who saved her from a Talon assassin—and by doing so, signed his own death warrant.

SOLDIER

Forced to choose between becoming an assassin for the dragon organization Talon and being hunted forever as an outcast, Ember Hill now stands with Riley and his band of rogue dragons. She’s lost contact with her twin brother, Dante, a Talon devotee, as well as Garret, the former enemy soldier who challenged her beliefs about her human side.

LEGION

Dragon hatchling Ember Hill was never prepared to find love at all—dragons do not suffer human emotions—let alone with a human, and a former dragonslayer at that. With ex-soldier of St. George Garret dying at her feet after sacrificing his freedom and his life to expose the deepest of betrayals, Ember knows only that nothing she was taught by dragon organization Talon is true.


The fifth and final title, Inferno, published in 2018, is pretty expensive in the US at $9.99, but not too horrible in the UK, where it's been at £3.49 for months. That's a bit more than I'd usually spend, but if I actually get the other four books to the top of my TBR and like them, I'd probably do it...

Reprint of a 1977 fantasy anthology. Should be free everywhere.

Swords Against Darkness ed. Andrew J Offutt
amazon.co.uk | amazon.com | amazon.ca

Contents at isfdb.org

Quote:
Swords Against Darkness is a collection of short stories in the tradition of Robert E. Howard...

Robert E. Howard provides weird surprises in a tale of a Spanish opportunist, a “lost” Aztec city, and a centuries-old mage.
The goddess of Chance gambles with a barbarian swordsman — for his life. The Empire of Rome is threatened with disaster by a barbaric sorcerer who raises mindless killers for the earth itself. The last survivor of Atlantis is called upon to do battle against a human-eating creature only he can brave — to save a race of giants.
This excellent collection of heroic fantasy fiction is a must read for any fan of swords and sorcery.

The original paperback cover is much more fun than the dull Kindle cover.

I totally agree. In fact, that's the cover I put on my copy.
