Posted on 2015-03-10 at 20:11 by Sam

I was planning to hold off posting this until March 13, because I know of a nice set of books that will be going on sale, but I'll have to settle for updating it after March 13 instead, due to some nice deals to pass along which expire on March 11, which is, er, tomorrow. Ah, the life of a bargain hunter.

So I'll start with those soon-to-expire deals, valid through Wednesday, March 11, taken from the Whispersync enabled titles among the 175 Kindle Books for $1.99 Each:

UPDATE 3/13: SEE THE END OF THE POST

With less than 10 days left in the month, perhaps it's time to finally get the January Whispersync Deal roundup out into the world. [UPDATE: Since this post has drawn some new readers who may be unfamiliar with Whispersync for Voice, in brief: after (or at the same time as) buying the Kindle edition you can add on the narration if an enabled Audible edition exists, often for a steep discount on even the member/credit price.]

First, a handful of currently running Kindle Countdown Deals that will bump back

Monday, January 20, 2014: It's almost hard to believe that for just $1.99 Kindle and a mere $0.99 Whispersync for Voice upgrade to the Audible edition that you can enjoy one of the more oustanding contemporary fantasy audiobooks of the last decade, Zoo City By Lauren Beukes, Narrated By Justine Eyre for Angry Robot on Brilliance Audio. The minimal description doesn't nearly do the book justice, but let's start there: "Zinzi December has a Sloth on her back, a dirty 419 scam habit, and a talent for finding

Posted on 2013-11-21 at 13:0 by Sam

Well... wow. I've really let these reports get way, way out of hand. It's mid-November! Anyway... I'm not really sure how it happened, but though February is the shortest month it was a huge month of listening for me after quite a start to the year in January as well. I also threaded in John Scalzi's episodic The Human Division (which I won't review myself here, since Dave covered these magnificently through his Listen-a-Long). Wonderful books and in a splendid variety, from a crazed serial killer in New
