Thieves’ World: Volume One By Collected Authors; edited by Robert Asprin $2.99 Amazon, Kobo and B&N
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. The First Sister By Linden A. Lewis $1.99 Amazon, Kobo and B&N 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:
Kindle US/Smile: https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B079K3H84Q Kobo US: https://www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/the...-saga-volume-1 Spoiler:
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... Kindle UK: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B076Z7LGN7/ |

Highly recommended if you like sword & sorcery. These are Robert E. Howard-'ish' novelettes. |
