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:

There are 471 Whispersync-enabled titles in this month's Kindle Monthly Deal listings, 75 of them in the Science Fiction & Fantasy section.

The Mirror Empire: Worldbreaker Saga 1 for $1.99+$3.49 and Empire Ascendant: Worldbreaker Saga #2 for $1.99+$2.99 are just ridiculous prices

Now that we're about halfway through November, it's past time to round up this month's Whispersync (and other) deals. First up, the usual gold source for new Whispersync deals, the Kindle monthly deals. 12 books to send up this time:

Posted on 2014-02-11 at 18:37 by Sam

Running through February 19, Audible.com's Begin at the Beginning sale on first books in a series includes 206 books all priced at $4.95. Now, 206 titles is a pretty long list.

Sullivan's The Crown
