One I've never heard of, but sounds very good: Ngugi wa Thiong'o's A Grain of Wheat is going for $1.99 at Amazon.
Appears to be part of a Penguin series on African writers. The author was nominated for a Nobel Prize and this is his most popular book. Quote:

Here Be Dragons is the first in Sharon Kay Penman's Welsh Princes series. It has dropped to $1.99 at Kindle and Kobo US. I really really like Penman's Justin de Quincy mystery series, but also like historical fiction, so I'm going to give this one a try.

Colleen McCullough's The Thorn Birds is $1.99 at Amazon. It's been a decade since I read it, but I remember really enjoying it. Recommended.
