I haven't read this series, but I very much enjoyed his series on Julius Caesar, Emperor.

I think they changed the title. Couldn't find this one on US or UK in Kindle even with the link, but there is a series for Ghenghis.

It shows up for me on Amazon.com. When searching it shows as an Audible listing. Clicking on that shows all available editions. I am in the US.

The hippy classic Trout Fishing in America by Richard Brautigan is on sale for $1.99 at Amazon.

Richard Brautigan was a literary idol of the 1960s and ’70s who came of age during the heyday of Haight-Ashbury and whose comic genius and iconoclastic vision of American life caught the imaginations of young people everywhere. Called “the last of the Beats,” his early books became required reading for the hip generation, and on its publication Trout Fishing in America became an international bestseller. An indescribable romp, the novel is best summed up in one word: mayonnaise.

Now $2.99 at the same e-tailers, so if you missed it back in 2017 at $1.99, you have another chance at a pretty good price. @BetterRead's links below are all still good. As I've said before, this is my favorite Steinbeck tale.

I think we've had a meeting of the minds about Mr. Steinbeck before

The fantastical and awesome 999-line masterpiece written by John Slade is available at Amazon.com. This brilliant poem is skillfully explicated by Dr. Charles Kinbote. Somehow, Vladimir Nabakov steals the credit from those two literary giants. Pale Fire is a measly $2.99.

Oh, love this! Thank you. And as Glinda the Witch almost said, Kobo, too.

I love books that take me in to a world I know nothing about. Here's a book that offers a behind the scenes look at Chinese opera:

The Moon Opera by Bi Feiyu is $1.99 at Amazon

Twenty years ago, in a fit of diva jealousy, Xiao Yanqiu, star of The Moon Opera, violently assaulted her understudy. Spurned by the troupe, she turned to teaching.

Now, a rich cigarette-factory boss has offered to underwrite a restaging of the cursed opera—but only on the condition that Xiao Yanqiu return to the role of Chang’e. So she does, this time believing she has fully become the immortal moon goddess . . .

What's your location? Maybe it's just not available where you are. You could always go to Amazon and just search for Conn Iggulden Genghis

The book has now gone all the way up to the outrageous price of $2.99.

New York, 1888. Gas lamps still flicker in the city streets, but the miracle of electric light is in its infancy. The person who controls the means to turn night into day will make history--and a vast fortune. A young untested lawyer named Paul Cravath, fresh out of Columbia Law School, takes a case that seems impossible to win. Paul's client, George Westinghouse, has been sued by Thomas Edison over a billion-dollar question: Who invented the light bulb and holds the right to power the country?
