Posted on 2016-09-30 at 17:47 by Sam

In the latest crop of the monthly 3.99 or less Kindle titles, there's 174 Whispersync-enabled deals to check out, with no shortage of fantastic books and audiobooks from classic and current sf to epic fantasy to thrillers and more. When you add the monthly $2 or less listings with its own 52 Whispersync deals, there's certainly a lot to tempt you as September comes to a close. And! While you're at it, don't forget that Audible's $4.95 members-only "Win-Win" sale was extended through the end of the month as

August is almost over, which means it's #WhispersyncDeal roundup time! Before I get to the regular Monthly Deals in Kindle Books and 50 Kindle Book Deals for $2 Each listings, and the huge list of titles in Audible's "3 years of daily deals" sale, though, a completely separate deal headlines my picks this month:

Per Tor and Tor.com editor Marco Palmieri, Max Gladstone's Craft Sequence is moving from Tor Books to Tor.com Publishing, and the series-wide $4.99 sale continues through August. The bad news is

Blackout (All Clear Book 1) by Connie Willis, read by Katherine Kellgren for $1.99+$4.49 is the first half of the Hugo Award winning time-travel duology Blackout/All Clear: "Oxford in 2060 is a chaotic place, with scores of time-traveling historians being sent into the past.

July brought a refreshed list of Summer Reading Deals and 50 Kindle Books for $2 Each to the Kindle store, and there's over 700 titles in there, 387 of which are Whispersync for Voice enabled in the "Summer Reading Deals" alone. (There's another 46 in the $2 Kindle listings.) What's most worth checking out? There's a lot, even there, including a few titles from 2016 from Saga Press and Simon & Schuster Audio, classics, and more. Here you go, starting with those Saga/S&S titles that I can hardly believe can

May #WhispersyncDeal roundup: Ink Mage, The Oddfits, Neal Pollack, Wayward Pines, Evermen, Ania Ahlborn, and more

Posted on 2016-05-31 at 1:22 by Sam

Of the about 300 titles in the Monthly Deals listings, 142 are listed as "eBooks with Audible Narration" which, I gather, is how the Kindle store has been listing what used to be called "Whispersync for Voice" titles these days. I'm going to continue calling these "Whipsersync Deals" and this month we get Clive Barker, Neal Pollack, Blake Crouch, James Maxwell, Ania Ahlborn, Susan Ee, Robert Dugoni, Stuart Neville, Michael Wallace, and tons more, and though again as last month there's not a whole lot of

Posted on 2016-04-30 at 1:6 by Sam

There are 165 Whispersync-for-Voice-enabled titles on sale in this month's Monthly Deals in Kindle Books, but... there aren't too many that really catch my eye, and only a few really, really top shelf titles. But! Those are quite good ones indeed, so, as this is coming out riiiiiight at the end of the month (sorry folks!) take a quick look; and once I get through the monthly titles, I do have a few indie picks this month, including a countdown deal, as well as a new audiobook adaptation of Jane Eyre which

This one's coming later in the month than I'd like, but I've been dumping my free time into Tom Clancy's The Division and listening with rapt attention to Simon Vance's narration of We, the Drowned. Of the 164 Whispersync-enabled titles in this month's Monthly Deals for $3.99 or Less listings, there's the usual crop of uninteresting (to me!) and the "not quite a deal, actually" titles. And then there are these gems, which I hope you (and your wallet) enjoy:
