ChiZine CyberMonday 50% off selected e-books (~30+) [Sci-Fi/Fantasy & Horror]

ATDrake · 11-25-2012, 10:33 PM

ChiZine Publications, a well-regarded Canadian-run sf/fantasy/horror small press you may recall from that time they offered a free e-book earlier this year, has been holding their Black Friday anticipation Sale for the entire past week and a half, actually.

But I finally moved myself to post about it today, since Monday is the last day for it.

They are offering 50% off a large portion of their e-book catalogue (around 30+ titles), which is DRM-free MultiFormat for which you get an ePub/Mobi/PDF bundle, for final prices of $3.98-$4.98.

Their books include past and recent Aurora & Hugo & British Fantasy Award nominees/winners such as Lavie Tidhar and Carolyn Ives Gilman and Tim Lebbon and Douglas Smith (all four of whom have given us freebies over the past few months, I will remind you), and normally go for $8-10 as e-books directly from their store, and even more when bought via Amazon/elsewhere due to this distribution contract they have with HarperCollins which bumped the prices up to ~12-ish CAD, last I checked.

No coupon is required, the discount is automatic and shown in red on the eligible books in their catalogue page.

If there's anything you wanted to get from them, now is a really good time, since I've been tracking them all year in the hopes of a sale and this is the first they've had that wasn't for the paperbacks (for which they offer a free e-book version bundled in with the pb direct-purchase, by the way). I'm probably just going to dump everything but the freebie I got into my cart and go from there since I don't think I really can go all that wrong with this overall quality of stuff.

If you're interested in supporting a small publisher and like the genre/author selection they have, ChiZine also offers a year-long subscription to everything they publish for $100 for all the 15 e-books slated to be released in 2013 and you get the titles in advance of their print publications, which include even more Hugo/Stoker awardees (2012 bundle still available, but most of those titles are on sale in this sale for less than the amortized ~$6 per book that the bundle price works out to).

Thanks for the heads-up on this. Just picked up three books I'd been wanting for a while at half-price.
