Samuel Delany & Robert Silverberg

Alec Effinger's The Budayeen Cycle is on sale for $2.99 Kobo Michael Swanwick's Bones of the Earth, In the Drift, and Vacuum Flowers omnibus is on sale for $1.99 Kobo The first volume on Robert Silverberg's The New Springtime (At Winter's End) is also on sale for $1.99 in case you don't like buying omnibuses, and either prefer spending twice as much or already have The Queen of Springtime and can't bear the thought of buying it twice.

X-link to the DRM-free thread for some new bundles:
Humble Book Bundle Stellar Sci-Fi & Fantasy presented by Tachyon lives up to its name, with a truly excellent selection of short story collections, novellas, and anthologies, and even a non-fiction book of essays from Cory Doctorow, Patricia A.

Going for $1.99 on Amazon - The Collected Stories of Arthur C. Clarke: A massive volume of exceptional science-fiction short stories by Arthur C. Clarke, the author of iconic works including: 2001: A Space Odyssey and Childhood’s End. This collection compiles all of his shorter works written throughout his career—ranging from his earliest work, to classic favorites that have defined the genre. Both exciting and philosophical, these collected stories don’t just keep readers turning pages—they keep them asking big questions about what it means to be human, and humanity’s future role in the universe.

I know Ben Bova was mentioned up-thread. Couldn't remember if this was the one mentioned: an omnibus of Ben Bova's Grand Tour SciFi Series: Mars, Moonrise, Moonwar, Return to Mars is $2.99 on Amazon
From the prolific author Ben Bova comes a four-book bundle of science fiction space operas from his Grand Tour SciFi series. Mars and Return to Mars follow the struggle of settling on Mars, and Moonrise and Moonwar follow the events of colonizing the Moon – all struggling against the limitations Earth would set on these bold innovators. |
