I don't usually post the Tor.com monthly free book deal, because lots of other people do. But I noticed in the email about it that I got today, that the free book is available TODAY ONLY, 7/21/2021. My impression is that usually the free book has been available for a few days at least, although I could be wrong about that. But in any case, since it's got a very short fuse, I thought I'd post now:
Victories Greater than Death, Unstoppable Book 1, by Charlie Jane Anders Spoiler:

Under Heaven by Guy Gavriel Kay is $1.99 on Amazon.com
This is historical fantasy based on Tang dynasty China. Standalone, but a sequel was released 4 years later. Quote:

The Godmakers by Frank Herbert is $0.99 at Amazon US. Yes, he did write things that weren't Dune, though, to be fair, none of the rest were quite as good. And he definitely liked to explore certain themes.

Volume 1 (containing books 1-3) was $1.99 in December. Maybe wait for it to go on sale again, if you're not in a hurry to read it. The first book Swords and Deviltry is usually on sale for $1.99 several times a year. I'd suggest waiting on that as well. Also note that Shadowland is an "authorized sequel". |

Under Heaven By Guy Gavriel Kay $1.99 Amazon, Kobo and B&N
Fantasy - Ancient China Background Endurance: The Complete Series By A.C. Spahn $.99 Amazon, Kobo and B&N Scifi - This just looked interesting I won't be posting as often in the next few weeks. Mom had a misstep off the last rung of a stepstool and cracked her heel, so I'm now caregiver to two people. |

The Jordan sale is also on @ Kobo Canada and amazon.ca.
I'm lucky. I picked up a complete omnibus back when The Wheel of Time was nominated for a Hugo. It was free with a membership. The omnibus alone was worth the membership, and I enjoyed a number of the other novels. |

Elatsoe by Darcie Little Badger is $2.99 on Amazon.com and other worldwide retailers, such as Kobo.
This was on my wishlist, and is highly recommended by many. I was just looking at it today, thinking maybe I'll buy it with my Summer Rewards discount, because it will probably not go on sale any time soon. Quote:
