[pdurrant]

Use coupon code 011312 at fictionwise for 50% off all books (except Samhain Publishing ones).

The last 50%+ coupon was a 55% off coupon on the 23rd December. Before that was a 50% off coupon on 19th November, and before that 55% on 29th October.

It should still be valid with 15% off new issues on Monday.

Thank you! I have been wanting to get John Simpson's Condor One series (5 books) and was waiting on a sale either through Fictionwise, Dreamspinner, or AllRomance. My Kindle will be happy

Thanks for sharing! They've about a half-dozen things currently in the new releases that I've been wanting to get, and hopefully some more will show up on Monday as well.

Thanks! There is a few HQs that are under $4 on the publisher's site I need to get that go with some of the HQs I bought this week. This will work great!

Apparently, it is supposed to last until the 16th, but usually they extend it up to 4 or 5 days after.

As well, the coupon does not cover Samhain titles (never does).

I picked up a few HQs that I didn't get with the amazing coupon they had.

Also for those who may not know Joanna Bourne just release her book Her Ladyship's Companion in ebook form! It's $2.13 with coupon! It's DRM free Multi format too.

That's one of the ones I was looking at this week since they labelled it as a historical fiction crossover. If you've read it and don't mind my asking, how's the gothic/mystery plot to this?

If it's got a strong one that's co-dominant with the more romance-y aspects and the historical bits seem good, I may pick it up this time around instead of waiting for a 60% off which will bring it to $2. I'm fine with giving the author an extra 13 cents if she tells the sort of story I'm more likely to like.

It's part of a series. The books were not written in chronological order. I own the other three and while HLC was written first it's actually book 4 in the chronological timeline. So it depends on the reading order you choose to start with. Seeing it was written in the early 80s I can't seeing reading it as number 4. The writing language would be too much of a jump back So I plan to start with that one and read them as they were published.

I can't say how romantic the book is or how strong the mystery part plays but I know this series is highly talk about and till now that book was impossible to find in print. I think I saw one going for $60 for a readable copy and for a good copy $100+ So to pay $2.13 for this title makes me very happy.

Okay, thanks. The sample read well enough and if it's a "talking heads" romance like some of the Georgette Heyers are, I'm mostly fine with that. I just don't want too much angsty relationship drama in my reading.

If I see anything else available that I want to get this week, I'll pick the Bourne up as well, if only to encourage them to keep putting out the rest of the series by showing it sells.

Keep in mind the other books in the series were published in 2008+ So I imagine they are full of romangst.
