Same here
There are two editions. The one from Nightshade is $9.99 (the other appears to be older, perhaps a previous publisher or self-pubbed, that's never been removed from the catalog.

Unable to download. Author's Facebook page has similar posts. Some say server issues.

Also, Night Shade Books is being sold due to financial difficulties.

I can't download it either. Whatever the problem is, it's not specific to this book or Night Shade - I can't download anything in my nook library right now.

B&N has apparently managed to reboot their DRM servers (when I originally posted, the servers for checking your account info were also offline, as I found when I tried to check that my CC info was current; those came up early, but the DRM servers stayed down).

I am pretty sure that was their issue, as the error msg from the tablet specifically referred to the inability to issue the license for the book.

Anyway ... now working, so download away.

Good Omens ($1.99 Kindle, B&N), by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett, is the Nook Daily Find, price matched on Kindle (it was already discounted to $3.99 as part of the Monthly $3.99 or Less Sale).

And talking of Neil Gaiman, his American Gods has dropped even further as part of the Kindle Daily Deal to $1.99 at Amazon (US):

Quote:
First published in 2001, American Gods became an instant classic—an intellectual and artistic benchmark from the multiple-award-winning master of innovative fiction, Neil Gaiman. Now discover the mystery and magic of American Gods in this tenth anniversary edition. Newly updated and expanded with the author’s preferred text, this commemorative volume is a true celebration of a modern masterpiece by the one, the only, Neil Gaiman.

A storm is coming . . .

Locked behind bars for three years, Shadow did his time, quietly waiting for the magic day when he could return to Eagle Point, Indiana. A man no longer scared of what tomorrow might bring, all he wanted was to be with Laura, the wife he deeply loved, and start a new life.

But just days before his release, Laura and Shadow’s best friend are killed in an accident. With his life in pieces and nothing to keep him tethered, Shadow accepts a job from a beguiling stranger he meets on the way home, an enigmatic man who calls himself Mr. Wednesday. A trickster and rogue, Wednesday seems to know more about Shadow than Shadow does himself.

Life as Wednesday’s bodyguard, driver, and errand boy is far more interesting and dangerous than Shadow ever imagined—it is a job that takes him on a dark and strange road trip and introduces him to a host of eccentric characters whose fates are mysteriously intertwined with his own. Along the way Shadow will learn that the past never dies; that everyone, including his beloved Laura, harbors secrets; and that dreams, totems, legends, and myths are more real than we know. Ultimately, he will discover that beneath the placid surface of everyday life a storm is brewing—an epic war for the very soul of America—and that he is standing squarely in its path.

Relevant and prescient, American Gods has been lauded for its brilliant synthesis of “mystery, satire, sex, horror, and poetic prose” (Michael Dirda, Washington Post Book World) and as a modern phantasmagoria that “distills the essence of America” (Seattle Post-Intelligencer). It is, quite simply, an outstanding work of literary imagination that will endure for generations.

The Spiral Tattoo by Michael J Parry, published by Sky Warrior Books, is 0.99 at Kobo right now. No idea how long it lasts, since I think it is primarily due to Kobo lagging when it comes to raising the price again. ( It is 2.99 at Smashwords.)
The Blurb: Law comes in two sizes: six inches and eight feet. Elanore, the eight-foot tall troll, and Gurt, the six-inch tall (don't you dare call me a fairy) Eleinu, both guardsmen in the city of Delvenport, tackle their most baffling case yet. When they find a dead waitress, naked except for an intricate tattoo in a spiral across her body, they're launched into an adventure ...

Just FYI, the individual Mistborn books are down to $5.99. If you picked up #1 about 5 years ago, when it was free, then it's just under $12 to just pick up the next two...

If you use some of the 30% codes going in the kobobooks.com discount codes thread you can get the individual Mistborn books for 3.74 Euros ($4.85) each at Kobo France.

The Wicked Years series by Gregory McGuire are $1.99 each at Amazon (US) as part of the Kindle Daily Deal. I picked all of them up.

Wicked (Book 1) - LINK

Quote:
This is the book that started it all! The basis for the smash hit Tony Award-winning Broadway musical, Gregory Maguire's breathtaking New York Times bestseller Wicked views the land of Oz, its inhabitants, its Wizard, and the Emerald City, through a darker and greener (not rosier) lens. Brilliantly inventive, Wicked offers us a radical new evaluation of one of the most feared and hated characters in all of literature: the much maligned Wicked Witch of the West who, as Maguire tells us, wasn’t nearly as Wicked as we imagined.

Son of a Witch (Book 2): LINK

Quote:
In this captivating New York Times bestseller, beloved author Gregory Maguire returns to the land of Oz and introduces us to Liir, an adolescent boy last seen hiding in the shadows of the castle after Dorothy did in the Witch. Is he really Elphaba's son? He has her broom and her cape—but what of her powers? In an Oz that, since the Wizard's departure, is under new and dangerous management, can Liir keep his head down long enough to grow up?

A Lion Among Men (Book 3): LINK

Quote:
Return to a darker Oz with Gregory Maguire. In A Lion Among Men, the third volume in Maguire’s acclaimed, New York Times bestselling series The Wicked Years, a fuller, more complex Cowardly Lion is brought to life and gets to tell his remarkable tale. It is a story of oppression and fear in a world gone mad with war fever—of Munchkins, Wizards, and Wicked Witches—and especially of a gentle soul and determined survivor who is truly A Lion Among Men.

Out of Oz (Book 4): LINK

Quote:
Bestselling author Gregory Maguire’s remarkable series, The Wicked Years, comes full circle with this, his fourth and final excursion across a darker, richer, more complex landscape of “the magical land of Oz.” Out of Oz brilliantly reimagines L. Frank Baum’s world over the rainbow as wracked with social unrest—placing Glinda the good witch under house arrest and having the cowardly Lion on the lam from the law as the Emerald City prepares to make war on Munchkinland. Even Dorothy makes a triumphant return in Maguire’s magnificent Oz finale—tying up every loose green end of the series he began with his classic Wicked, the basis for the smash hit Broadway musical.
As with all Kindle Daily Deals - not likely to last long.

That's a good deal. It would certainly have tempted me if it was available in the UK. I'm not sure whether to be pleased or not!
