Discount Armageddon by Seanan McGuire (InCryptid #1) is currently $1.99 in the US.
I enjoyed this, and have bought others in the series, its a fun quick read https://www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/dis...ncryptid-novel https://www.amazon.com/Discount-Arma.../dp/B006LU0HNS Cryptid, noun: Any creature whose existence has not yet been proven by science. See also "Monster." Crytozoologist, noun: Any person who thinks hunting for cryptids is a good idea. See also "idiot." Ghoulies. Ghosties. Long-legged beasties. Things that go bump in the night... The Price family has spent generations studying the monsters of the world, working to protect them from humanity—and humanity from them. Enter Verity Price. Despite being trained from birth as a cryptozoologist, she'd rather dance a tango than tangle with a demon, and is spending a year in Manhattan while she pursues her career in professional ballroom dance. Sounds pretty simple, right? It would be, if it weren't for the talking mice, the telepathic mathematicians, the asbestos supermodels, and the trained monster-hunter sent by the Price family's old enemies, the Covenant of St. George. When a Price girl meets a Covenant boy, high stakes, high heels, and a lot of collateral damage are almost guaranteed. To complicate matters further, local cryptids are disappearing, strange lizard-men are appearing in the sewers, and someone's spreading rumors about a dragon sleeping underneath the city... |

Thirded, with a note that the initial set of free short stories is both complete and takes place well before the novels. It's an excellent way to sample the world and see how you like it before moving on to the novels.

Amazon UK: The first and last of Mary Stewart's Arthurian series are at £0.99 at the moment. This seems to be a publisher's choice rather than a special offer, but who knows how long they'll stay at this price?

X-link to the Comics thread and the DRM-free thread for some new bundles:
Humble Manga Bundle Fairy Tale presented by Kodansha Comics contains 45 volumes of the main series and assorted tie-ins for the eponymous popular manga/anime comedic fantasy adventure quest series. The Epic Elves Bundle from StoryBundle contains assorted themed indie works, if you're interested. And Bundle of Holding has some more RPG gamebooks if you like Arthuriana and/or cyberpunk. |

(I put it on my wishlist, assuming I'd have all month to earn it/make my mind up. I check my wishlist every day, and I'm sure it was still 99p yesterday.) |
