Well, it's the sixth Earthsea book, and kind of works as an epilogue to the other five.
I mean, it's good (although maybe the weakest of the six?), but not on its own. |

Today's Barnes & Noble Free Friday book, The Conjured Woman by Anne Gross is an interesting-sounding time travel mystery.
It appears to only be free at Barnes & Noble. It's $4.99 everywhere else. I thought at first that it was self-published (as most of the Free Friday books are), but the publisher is Beaufort Books, a small, but respectable independent publisher. Quote:

If David Gemmell's Troy: Lord of the Silver Bow (The Troy Trilogy Book 1) ever goes on sale, grab it. That one and the 2nd one are very good. (The third one was finished by his wife after he passed away.)

Many new titles in Amazon.com's daily deal:
A Memory Called Empire by Arkady Martine - $2.99 - Link First in a series. Very highly regarded. Quote:
The Ruin of Kings by Jenn Lyons - $2.99 - Link First in an epic fantasy series. There's a big publicity push behind it but I don't know if the hype is justified. The Luminous Dead by Caitlin Starling - $1.99 - Link Horror in a giant alien cave. Quote:

A People's Future of the United States: Speculative Fiction from 25 Extraordinary Writers Kindle Edition $2.99 May be on sale on other retailers/other Amazons. Can't be bothered to check to be honest. Spoiler:
Not sure if it's any good, but I bought it. Also picked up that Chinese SciFi thing mentioned a couple posts before this one. |
