You could just rotate it 180°. Of course you'd have to turn off auto-rotation for the screen first, or it'd keep flipping to still be upside-down.

If you like Mercades Lackey, Humble Bundle have 37 of her books in a bundle for ~$27 AUD or equivalent in your currency. The books are being sold as usable on any device so no drm.

https://www.humblebundle.com/books/m...yond-daw-books

I haven't bought books from humble bundle for a long time so I don't know if they have done this before but the book are redeemable through the kobo site, was very easy to redeem, though I easily tripled the number of books I had in that account

A great bundle, which I'd have bought if I didn't already have all but four. £14.44 is too much for four novels for me.

Just to let everyone know that these are all Valdimar books. I've read all of them and they are quite good.

Both of these were on my wishlist

Wild Massive by Scotto Moore is $3 in the US (Kobo, Amazon)
Quote:
Scotto Moore's Wild Massive is a glorious web of lies, secrets, and humor in a breakneck, nitrous-boosted saga of the small rejecting the will of the mighty.

Welcome to the Building, an infinitely tall skyscraper in the center of the multiverse, where any floor could contain a sprawling desert oasis, a cyanide rain forest, or an entire world.

Carissa loves her elevator. Up and Down she goes, content with the sometimes chewy food her reality fabricator spits out, as long as it means she doesn’t have to speak to another living person.

But when a mysterious shapeshifter from an ambiguous world lands on top of her elevator, intent on stopping a plot to annihilate hundreds of floors, Carissa finds herself stepping out of her comfort zone. She is forced to flee into the Wild Massive network of theme parks in the Building, where technology, sorcery, and elaborate media tie-ins combine to form impossible ride experiences, where every guest is a VIP, the roller coasters are frequently safe, and if you don’t have a valid day pass, the automated defense lasers will escort you from being alive.

Wild Massive: The #1 destination for interdimensional war.

Africa Risen: A New Era of Speculative Fiction edited by Sheree Renée Thomas, Oghenechovwe Donald Ekpeki, and Zelda Knight is $3 in the US (Kobo, Amazon)

You get them from the Kobo site with a coupon, the only pity is that half of the covers are messed up or missing at all.
I had to redo them with Calibre.

Just to add that the U.S. price is $18.00 for all 37 titles. [About 48.64 cents for each title.]

This sounds like a great bargain. I've known about this author for an eternity, it seems, but I have yet to read anything by her. (That's an 'e' on Mercedes. )

The Terraformers by Annalee Newitz is $3 in the US (Kobo, Amazon)
A new release with a lot of buzz.
Quote:
A sweeping, uplifting, and illuminating exploration of the future.

Destry's life is dedicated to terraforming Sask-E. As part of the Environmental Rescue Team, she cares for the planet and its burgeoning eco-systems as her parents and their parents did before her.

But the bright, clean future they're building comes under threat when Destry discovers a city full of people that shouldn’t exist, hidden inside a massive volcano.

As she uncovers more about their past, Destry begins to question the mission she's devoted her life to, and must make a choice that will reverberate through Sask-E's future for generations to come.

A science fiction epic for our times and a love letter to our future, The Terraformers will take you on a journey spanning thousands of years and exploring the triumphs, strife, and hope that find us wherever we make our home.

I got it as well although I found the get from Kobo wasn’t intuitive, probably because I’m in the UK and use a different store where the DAW editions aren’t available (we have the Gollancz and Titan Books editions). Turns out you log into your account and then click the Kobo link on the Humble Bundle page and it populates a page on Kobo with the correct editions.

I did notice several downloaded without covers which was a bit of a pain.

Mercedes Lackey's books tend to have beautiful, weird covers. They make me think of Barbie in a fantasy story. There's something about the eyes and slightly 'off' poses. In case it sounds like I'm slagging the covers, on the contrary, I like them.

The art reminds me a lot of Colleen Doran's style (to where I looked to see if she did any cover art for Lackey).
