Thanks! Feed caught my eye a few days ago while it was still $9.99 so I passed as it isn't my usual fare. At $2.99 I grabbed it and will give a try.

I read Feed a while back. It was a decent book; I'll consider reading the sequel. Little predictable, but my biggest peeve was this focus on blogging and how Important (oh yeah, capital "I") it is. The best part was how the zombie virus came to be and how they tested for the zombie virus.

Reminded me of Doctorow's Little Brother (but with zombies!), which was just ok, but the whole "taking down the man!" thing got a little old. Definitively a YA book and written for that mindset.

Feed is a Hugo nominee, and Orbit has also reduced their other nominee, The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms by N.K. Jemisin, to $2.99.

B&N has the pre-Order on book 2 of the Newsflesh trilogy at $7.99
Deadline - Available 6/1. Kindle's price is $9.99. Isn't Orbit a Hachette imprint and thus Agency?

It's a game Orbit plays. Not the first one where Amazon's price was $2 more than B&N (and all others). Amazon drops it, a few days later it goes back up ... then down ... then up .. etc. All while staying at the lower price at B&N.
