The Ninth Rain – just 99p/99c for now

The Ninth Rain, the first part of The Winnowing Flame Trilogy, by Jen Williams is just 99p on the UK Amazon Kindle store.

Described as ‘perfect for fans of Robin Hobb’, the trilogy opener focuses on the teetering Eboran Empire and Tormalin the Oathless, who prefers the comforts of the tavern to trying to hold things together. Joining an eccentric explorer, and a pyromaniac, Tormalin the Oathless does his best to flee the empire, preferring tomb-raiding and monster-slaying.

But not everyone is willing to let the Eboran empire collapse, and the adventurers are quickly drawn into a tangled conspiracy of magic and war. For the Jure'lia are coming, and the Ninth Rain must fall...

Anyway, this fantasy is highly rated and it’s just 99p (or 99c if you’re an American). Not sure what the time frame is for the discount to end (the second part is £7.49). If it seems like your cup of tea, now’s the perfect time to give it a look.

The Last City – for just 99p/99c

Disclaimer: I have a story in this anthology (Legacy, by Thaddeus White).

The Last City, a sci-fi anthology put together by Dust Publishing’s Nick Bailey and Darren Bullock, is discounted to just 99p/99c in e-book form, until the end of the week and features short stories from best-selling authors like Nathan Hystad and Jo Zebedee. Its varied short stories tell tales of the last major human settlement in a distant solar system, settled ages ago. The City is an asteroid mining operation of immense proportions, ranging from the grimy underclass of the lower levels to unrivalled opulence higher up, all governed by a commercial feudalism with a thin veneer of democracy.

Five star sci-fi for under a quid isn’t half-bad, so now’s the perfect time to buy it.

Red Sister Deal – just 99p

Red Sister, Book of the Ancestor part 1, is cut to just 99p on the UK Amazon Kindle store. (Not sure what the previous price was but Grey Sister, part 2, is out in May and pencilled in at £9.99).

Mark Lawrence, as well as running the excellent #SPFBO contest, is the author of the Broken Empire Trilogy, which was very well written and I can recommend.

So if you’ve been pondering what fantasy to buy next and like things grim, now is a great time to take advantage of a highly rated book for 99p.
